I am sorry to report the death this morning of my Father-In-Law, Capt. Martin M. ("Mike") Casey, from Parkinson's disease. he was surrounded by his family at the time. He cherished his time as a Naval Aviator, and honored all his comrades.

For details, please contact me at the address above.

Best wishes to all.
