[BNC-all] The Passing of Casey Heaton

[John Weaver]

To the BNC Family -

 

Last night we lost one of our own.  After an almost two-year battle with
cancer, Casey Heaton passed away.  He died at home, as was his wish.  All of
us who visited him in the past week found him in great spirits and in top
form with his sense of humor.  His decline and death over the past couple of
days was mercifully quick.

 

It goes without saying that he will be greatly missed.  His attitude, his
humor, his technical competence, and most of all his friendship is something
that all of us who knew him will carry forward in our memories.  His
contributions to BNC will live for many years to come, a fitting legacy to
Casey.

 

A memorial service is being planned for Saturday, 11 November 2007 - details
will follow in the near future.  If you would like to sign a card and/or
contribute to a memorial for Casey, please see Melissa Lane in the BNC
lobby.  Your thoughts and prayers for Casey and his family are greatly
appreciated.
