R.I.P. America’s DJ, Casey Kasem, Passes Away at the Age of 82

I grew up listening every week to Casey count down the weekly top 40 (and even earlier than that once I realized he had been the voice for Shaggy on Scooby-Doo).  He had an iconic voice.  His was a celebrity presence you take for granted.  He was an institution and it’s hard to believe we won’t be hearing that wonderful voice anymore.  Kasem passed away from complications from Alzheimer’s disease.  A fully biography and obituary from CNN is below.
