Michael Casen

[NW Mailing List]

I want to let you know that, after several years of declining health, Michael Casen died on Friday, February 2.  I hope no one minds that I am using this forum to try to reach people who might have known Michael.  I have contacted certain mutual friends and acquaintances, but I'm sure there are others in the railfan community whom I may not know that would appreciate getting this sad news.  And there are others I am acquainted with but whom I have had no contact with in recent years.

One person I would like to get this news to is Bill Griffin.  Perhaps one of you in the Richmond area would do me the favor of contacting him.

There will be a memorial service for Michael at 1:30 on Saturday, February 24, at the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd on Forest Hill Avenue in Richmond.  Anyone who would like further information, a map to the church, or just to reminisce about a truly unique person, you may contact me at RoanokeRails at cox.net.  I see no need to clutter up the chat room with messages concerning this matter.

Also, I would appreciate if you would let me know of any friends that you are able to pass this message to.  That will ease my mind a bit.  Again, use the RoanokeRails at cox.net email address.

Thank you,

Sam Putney
