“Terese and I as well as the entire Casey family want to express our condolences to the family of Lieutenant Governor Knoll. Pennsylvania has lost a dedicated public servant who served our Commonwealth with distinction as State Treasurer and Lieutenant Governor.
”Catherine's life was one of service and sacrifice, courage and commitment to the common good.

”She will be remembered for generations because of her work in creating the Tuition Account Program which has made it possible for tens of thousands of young people to attend college.
”On a personal note, she was my friend, and I, like many Pennsylvanians will miss her indomitable spirit and her compassion for those without a voice.”
