I saw that in the obituaries but didn't see how he passed. I remember him as he was leaving as I was getting to UL in the 90's and he was friends with some of my buds. Sorry to hear about him.

Sorry to hear that. Graduated high school with his sister. Prayers sent out

recruited Kasey as a walk on. Was a ferocious competitor and earned a scholarship during his years as a LB for the Cajuns. Knew his sister, Karen, for a few years before meeting Kasey. Some of you older guys may remember her as the sportscaster for KATC in the late 1980s. Kaseys mom and dad were a class act as was the whole family.....he will be sorely missed. Evangeline Funeral Home in New Iberia handled the arrangements and some of you former team mates may want to post on the online guestbook. I know that his family would very much appreciate it.
