Matthew Case "Casey" Cosby

Matthew Case “Casey” Cosby, age 45, passed away on Saturday, September 28, 2024.

Casey was a skilled journeyman electrician, contributing to numerous commercial construction and remodeling projects throughout Steamboat Springs and the Denver metro area. He had a deep love for the outdoors and spent much of his life immersed in nature—camping, scuba diving, fishing, and paddleboarding. He was artistically gifted, using mixed media to express himself on paper, creating framed art his family and friends will always cherish. Casey also loved music, amassing a huge record collection and equipment which allowed him to serve as a DJ.

He was a devoted son, brother, uncle, and friend. Recently, Casey moved from Steamboat Springs to Denver to be closer to his family. He was affectionately known as “Silly Uncle Casey” by his nieces and nephew, bringing joy and laughter with his playful, childlike spirit. In recent years, Casey found solace in a deepening spiritual connection as he grew in his Christian faith. He was known for wearing his heart on his sleeve, embracing life with an adventurous and uninhibited spirit.

Casey is survived by his daughter Tyler Legg, mother Elizebeth Howard, father and stepmother Michael and Anne Cosby, brother Michael (Nicole) Cosby, stepsister Shannon (Jay) Johnson, stepbrother Eric Peterson, stepsister Stacia Howard (Darryl Lujan), and his beloved nieces and nephew.

A private family ceremony and cremains burial will be held at St. Gabriel the Archangel Episcopal Church in Cherry Hills Village, Colorado. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations be made to one of the following organizations: Raleigh House, 988 Lifeline, or Mental Health Colorado.
