I’ll see you at the gate, my friend. 💔
We are so sorry for your loss and we’re lifting your family in prayer. Korey was such a sweetheart, always smiling. I remember the first time I met him as a little boy and he picked flowers for me. Corey fondly enjoys the many memories of watching him grow into the man he was to become. Many condolences and much love, Corey and Sherri.
My heart goes out to you guys! He was always smiling and laughing. He was the best! I’m praying for you all & look forward to celebrating him in October!
My prayers and thoughts and hugs to out to the Casey family. May you all find peace and strength from each other and all of us who love you.
I’m not sure who reads this, but nevertheless. I feel the need to express how much I thought of korey. I’m Joseph Phillip’s little brother bryant Phillip’s or “bubba” as korey and close family calls me. I had the great opportunity of becoming good friends with korey since I moved back to waco from east Texas several months ago. Everytime korey and I talked, it was about our own personal aspersions in life. Having children, joining the military, different jobs etc…. never once did korey have respond to pur conversations with negativity or downfalls. Only positivity. Korey always treated me as if I was his friend, not just joe’s little brother. I will always hold a great deal of respect for that. I think fondly of all the hours I’ve spent watching korey and joe argue back and forth as they play chess as their lives depended on it. I could sit and share countless fond memories I have of what I consider a good friend of my own korey. But in light I just wanted to say how tragic it is that the world has lost such a genuinely good soul. My heart and condolences go out to all of the Casey family. Much love.
I love you korey del!

Korey, it took me a minute to actually believe that you were gone, i called you like 10 times, its crazy…. I remember me ,you and Kevin, used to ride to school together our senior year, y’all was always late picking me up and we always laughed about it on the way to school. You touched so many lives and i hope you looking down smiling about that, you will forever be missed, and i send my deepest condolences to your family…Fly high my guy….
Kenny, I just can’t even fathom what you’re going through. My heart is so broken for you, Korey’s mom, and the rest of your family. I am praying for your strength and faith to get you through. I know there is nothing I can do or say that will help you with this most painful loss ever. Just know I’m carrying you in my heart, my thoughts and my prayers, always.
I love you Korey Del,
Thoes special memories of you will always bring a smile.
If only I could have you back for just a little while.
Then we could sit and talk again just like we used to do.
You always meant so very much and always will too.
The fact that your no longer here will always cause me pain, but you’re forever in my heart until we meet again.
God has you in his arms now, my sweet angel in heaven.
I know there is so much hurt here, and I pray that your family finds peace when the time has come. There are certain songs that will always be ‘our song’… I actually made it through one today. I have songs with so many people, but yours were special. You were there through such an epic time in my life and I hate that we left things the way we did. I wasn’t there and it tears me up inside to think of all the time between, where we could’ve just picked right back up and be the you and I that you and I were…. I know that you hear me sometimes, just wish I could hear you. I’m sorry for it all, and I do not blame you for anything. I just wait for the day we take another ride to the middle of nowhere because we always made it so much fun! JDRC
