John “Jack” Casey

My Grandpa Casey died this morning.

He’d been sick for quite some time, we went up and visited him on Sunday as our family said he’d taken a turn for the worse. He wasn’t able to speak and didn’t really seem to have a lot of recognition or anything, just could kind of open his eyes and look at people. Everyone was talking to him, and though he had no way to respond, we think he could hear. He was on a lot of morphine for pain at that point… like, a lot-a lot.

He is the first grandparent I’ve lost, and when I heard the news I didn’t feel like I had expected to. Just different. I’m not sure what that is. So now I’m praying for my Grandma and the rest of my family, and extended family.

Well, that’s all for now. I’ll have a more normal update soon but I just thought a death in the family warranted a real entry.

I hope everyone is well,
Brett Patrick Casey
