    I hunted geese with Casey in a field southeast of Park Rapids. It was always a treat to see both Case & Ty for the day or 2 that they came up, I always told Marv & Peggy I will always hunt with those boys. I am so sorry about your loss and I feel your pain.

    To Casey’s dear family and friends,
    I am heartbroken for you to experience this devastating loss. Our family lost our 16 year old son in the same way. The grief journey is different for everyone and you need to know that there is no time limit on your terrible grief. Hold tight to each other, to friends and to God. You will never have answers that make it any easier. Know in your hearts that Casey knew you all loved him and he loved you. Hold tight dear family. Hold tight.
