Casey Coleman passes away

[TomSullivan]

Word is Casey Coleman passed away this morning. May he Rest in Peace. He truly was a classy guy. Most of us in this business should strive to be as classy as he was! Condolences to his family. Heaven has gained one of the best sportcasters ever! I think it would be appropriate if we donated something to the American Cancer Society.

Condolences to Casey's family--we in the Boston area remember his dad Ken and I believe Casey worked
in this area as well. I read articles about his struggle (and his nickname of The Luckiest Guy In The World).
While it's regrettable he has passed on I'm sure he packed a lot of memorable experiences into those
55 years.

Condolences from a Steeler fan. He obviously had a passion for the city of Cleveland, and it was reflected everytime he opened the microphone.

Thoughts and prayers go out to the Coleman family.

BTW...his family asks that, in lieu of flowers and gifts, donations be made to Recovery Resources.

I'm in Columbus, but saw a copy of the Plain Dealer the day they had the touching story about him. Seemed to be a class act.

My thoughts and prayers are with Mr Colemans' family.. He was a top notch broadcaster, I always enjoyed listening to him on Cleveland Brown's games.

Link to obit in the Boston Globe. I didn't know his name was Kenneth R. Coleman Jr.; I assume the
"Casey" came from his initials, KC...
