Colin Bryce Casella, son of Keith and Bernice Casella and brother to Kirsten Casella, passed away in his home Monday, June 10th 2013.  A native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Colin moved to Rochester in 2002 where he graduated from John Marshall Senior High School and completed his first year at RCTC.

Colin had no limit to the things that interested him.

He loved music.  He played a variety of instruments and sang, and even performed in shows with his own band.

He loved art.  He was a talented sculptor and kept a sketchbook on him most times, and wrote his own poetry and songs.  His lyric writing was exceptional.

He loved to be active.  Skateboarding, snowboarding and skiing, hiking and camping, soccer and baseball, karate, and walking his three dogs were only some of his pastimes.

He loved to travel.  He accompanied his friends on ski trips in Colorado, Boy Scout trips in Philmont, New Mexico, and accompanied his family to a variety of places including Mexico and Europe.

Colin was always making others laugh.  He had a great capacity to help others.  He was a friend to many.

Colin was a loving son and brother.

He is survived by Keith Casella, his father, who loved him; Bernice Casella, his mother, who was always there for him; and Kirsten Casella, his sister, who always thought of him.

For all the things that Colin was, he will always be loved, and he will always be missed.
