Casey L. Hannah, loving father, grandfather, brother and son passed away peacefully on October 19, 2018 at age 56. Casey was born April 9, 1962 in Antigo, WI to Gordon Hannah and Colleen Connolly.
As a youth Casey had boundless energy and many realized in his younger years that he was going to go places and do big things in life. Casey had the intrinsic motivation to move mountains and a heart to serve others.
Casey was a graduate of Amery high school class of 1980 and at age 20 married his high school sweetheart, Teresa Hannah, and together had two children, Kyle and Kelly who were the center of Casey's life. Shortly after becoming a father Casey found sobriety and found Jesus. Casey found his strength in God and would tell you living his life according to God's plan. Casey became an ordained minister attending bible school in Roseville MN.
Casey was an extremely creative entrepreneur and found opportunities in everything. Casey successfully started and ran over ten businesses since 1980 including owning and operating the Saint Croix Speedway in Centuria WI, converting old railroads into bike trails and walkways, teaching high schoolers driver's education in WI public high schools, moving heavy equipment across our highways, to natural diabetic treatments for those diagnosed with type-2 diabetes, to working closely with his son and daughter to build Kyle's outsourcing business, PerformTel.
Most recently Casey cast a vision to improve our countries prison systems and partner with prisoners in making successful transitions back into society, developing with them critical job and communications skills. To accomplish this and help prisoners regain these skills and earn a savings account, Casey began working closely with selected prisoners and providing high quality call center outsourcing services to multiple industries. Casey was doing what he loved and providing opportunities for inmates to make the best possible wage while inspiring the community to step up. Casey had a special way of seeing the best in everyone and everything.
The world was a more fun and brighter place with Casey in it. Everyone he connected with, people would speak of his kindness and compassion. We know Casey is up in heaven right now smiling down, assuring our hearts and minds that this is all part of God's plan.
Casey is preceded in death by his father, Gordon. He is survived by his mother, Colleen, his two children, Kyle and Kelly, his four brothers, Mike, Marty, Tucker and Grady, and his two grandchildren, Amy and Charlie.
