      I suppose it would be disrespectful to say Casey?

      Anyhow, a life well lived. Which is what we all should aspire to. RIP.

    At least she's back with Ossie Davis now. I loved them both, separate and together.

      I had the same thought. Met them twice, they were lovely. Ossie died the day before my mom & we didn't tell her & I was so glad we didn't because she would have been heartbroken.
