The "Caskey Kids". Susan, Gary, Marshall, Glenda, and Earnest.
It is comforting to know that as we are grieving a loss, my mom Glenda is reunited in worship with her big brother. Not doubt hands raised and voicing ringing out above the rest in unashamed praise and worship to our savior.


My name is Pamela Jeannette Anderson, Cates, Lasater, granddaughter of Janet and Vernon Caskey, daughter of Glenda Vernette Caskey Cates, younger sister of Earnest Caskey. Upon hearing of the passing of the oldest “Caskey Kid” my daughter Kayla said, “It seems like the end of an era” as he was the patriarch of the family and shared so much family history with us. I would argue that it is not the “end of an era”, but the beginning of a legacy we all have the opportunity to share with future generations of Caskeys. These are my most treasured memories of mama's big brother.
I remember Uncle Ernest speaking at my moms memorial and mentioning her “boy crazy” teenage years (several times) in front of my whole church and thinking I would someday repay the favor so I will lead with what a charming and handsome ladies man my Uncle Ernie was! He brought a warm smile, a loving and kind word, and his awesome conversion van and motorcycles when he visited our family when I was a kid! I remember sitting beside him on our couch on 34th street and feeling like he had nothing better to do than sit and hear a little girl's hopes and dreams! I remember taking my one and only Spring Break trip to his house in Lake Jackson. It was my  first plane ride bought and paid for with hard earned money from my first job at McDonalds. He and Aunt Virginia made me feel like their special guest, buying me the best souvenir t-shirt and even convinced Steve to take me to Galveston and let me hang out with him and his friends. 
I remember, as a young teen, looking at his success and the success of the other "Caskey Kids" and understanding what it looks like to be an overcomer, set goals and accomplish them. Thank you all for being such an example of grit, perseverance and  love to our family!

This was a trip dad and I took to AK 30 yrs ago. Had many great adventures. I miss you dad!

Dad was so good to mom and loved her until the day she passed. He was the perfect husband for her.

Dad was a great example of Christ's love and how to treat a wife. He loved her until her death.
