Eddie Casey

[Allamuchy Joe]

Sad News...

I am so sorry to report that Little Eddie Casey passed away in the early morning hours of Sunday Sept 23rd. Most folks on the board know Little Eddie as DD-'s nephew, the 3 year old child who needed O negative blood for his heart transplant.

Dawn and I are grieving for the loss of Little Eddie. He was a fantastic little boy who loved to ride his little 12 inch bicycle like his aunt & uncle.

It seems that Eddie's body was so weak from his heart failure, he experienced a cerebral hemorage early this morning and passed away peacefully and without pain. We have one last appeal to our community -- please pray for his parents Ed & Vicki, as well as his 5 year old sister Elisabeth. They can certainly use the prayers.

Dawn (DD-) and I have been overwhelmed by the generousity of everyone on this forum. The outpouring of blood donations, heartfelt concern and support from everyone here has been so fantastic. All that just makes us feel privileged to know people like all of you.

Thanks to everyone,

Joe & Dawn

my deepest sympathies to you and your family...


time may not heal all wounds, but something happens over time that allows us to live with grief. i do not know its name but perhaps it can be called wisdom: the wisdom to love all, at all cost.
