Casey Lee Reeves, 53, passed away on Friday October 8, 2010. Casey was born June 4th, 1957 in Detroit, Michigan. He was the third child of Donald and Virginia Reeves. Siblings include Holly, Amy, and Kelly. Later the family moved to New Philadelphia, Ohio where Casey attended and graduated from New Philadelphia High School.

After graduation he attended Kent State University. The family later relocated to Escondido, California where Casey attended Palomar College. The years following college Casey became involved in the field of sales, specializing in the golf industry.

Casey found his best friend, lover, and confidant in Janet in early 1990. A day of happy beginnings with a pledge of love as one occurred on March 29th, 1997 on the sandy shores of Long Beach. Janet, Casey, Jamie, Ethan, and Jessica all lived happily together in Long Beach, California for many years.

Casey and Janet relocated to Pocatello, Idaho in 2005. Since that time they have met many wonderful friends, neighbors, and co-workers that were special to them. Casey fell in love with all that Idaho had to offer, whether it be hunting, fishing, snow skiing, or camping. While living in Pocatello he found a new way of life and developed a new career in the world of real estate. He put a great effort into working with his clients to provide customer satisfaction and professionalism into real estate ventures. Many of his clients became close friends and companions.

Casey relished his membership at the Juniper Hills Country Club. He brought a competitive edge to the sport of golf by playing passionately rain or shine. He particularly enjoyed the Men's Tournament on Sundays and the Scramble on Thursdays. If there was a tournament, he was sure to be found competing on the green.

Casey maintained an active membership with the Realtors' Association in the state of Idaho.

He also was a gifted poet and was notably recognized by the Poet's Association who honored him with numerous awards throughout the years. Casey was an avid lover of all sports particularly golf, football, and basketball. He was both a spectator and a participant who found it difficult to lose, so he fought to win.
