Casey Satterlee
February 15, 1978 – June 17, 2020
On June 16, 2020, Casey Satterlee passed away while exemplifying his all-time favorite superhero Batman, by protecting his children and rescuing his youngest son. Even in his final moments, Casey showed the depth of his love and protection for his family by telling his son that he loved them all. This was the true spirit of Casey Satterlee. He will be remembered as a caring man who had a passion for teaching and making an impact through education. He believed so strongly in the importance of education that he ran for office in order to improve education at the Oklahoma state level. He did not remain silent. He stood up for what he believed in and offered a voice to be heard, to strive for change, and to make a difference.
Casey was born in Oklahoma City on February 15, 1978 to Philip (Phil) Satterlee, Jr. and Janice (Payton) Satterlee.

Casey was among the finest of men I have ever met. Kindest heart, full of smiles and jokes and just so caring. He would always send me pictures of Mohammad from our scouting events without me even asking. He loved his family with all his heart and soul. He talked about you Lisa A. Satterlee with a spark in his eyes. He cherished every moment with his two sons Lewis and Aidan and until his last breath, he died a hero saving his son from drowning. Rest in Peace Casey… may God grant you the best that you deserve in the hereafter and may God grant your family patience ???????? You’re in our prayers ?????????
I’ll see you soon!!
You will be missed. You were so sweet , patient and kind .
Lisa,
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this very hard time in your life. Lean on the love of God daily, knowing that His plans are greater than ours. Reach out to others when you need anything, knowing that we are all here for you and praying daily for strength for you and your angels. ❤️
