Michael (Mike) Patrick Casey, 75, of Amelia Island, Fla., succumbed to pneumonia September 30, 2019, following a long illness.
A native of St. Louis, Mo., Mike grew up in Normandy, Mo., where he attended St. Ann Catholic Church and later graduated from Christian Brothers College (CBC) High School. After earning his Bachelor of Arts in Engineering from the University of Missouri and his Juris Doctorate from Washington University Law School, Mike embarked on a long and distinguished career as an attorney in St. Louis. He retired in 2008 from Lewis Rice LLC after many years as a senior partner in the firm and moved to Amelia Island to spend time with family and friends.
Despite the harsh physical and mental toll his disease took on him, he came to bear his affliction with a grace and dignity that transcended – if not defied – his circumstances.
He is survived by his wife and companion of 45 years, Linda; his son, Michael Patrick Casey Jr.; and his grandson, Patrick.
He will be memorialized privately by his family.
