ABC News confirmed that the radio personality died today in a California hospital. He was 82.
"Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars," was how he ended every program.
In recent years, the radio personality's health declined and in 2013, his daughter Kerri said he was suffering from a form of dementia. Around that time, his three oldest children and brother launched a claim that his wife Jean was not letting them see their father. A court denied a petition his daughter Julie launched to take care of her father in October 2013, but just last month, Kerri was granted conservatorship amid a battle with Kasem's second wife, her stepmother, Jean.

Well, it's over for Casey, but probably not the families.
I am sorry to hear of his passing. I hope now there will be some peace.
So very sad...What gives the step monster the right to keep his children at bay...shame on her...It is their dam birth rights...Karma always prevails...lots of prayers for his children..
