   Marie Casey, president of Casey Communications, spent more than 80 hours interviewing the one surviving company cofounder. In addition, she interviewed past and present executives and employees and reviewed volumes of documents, photographs and memorabilia dating back to the chain's founding. She directed a team of specialists in graphic design, photo preservation and genealogy to ensure an accurate and visually compelling finished product. The company was so pleased with its book that 10 years later, at its 60th anniversary, it retained Casey to expand and update the history to 150 pages.
   
   Corporate histories are a highly specialized communications product that Casey Communications is uniquely prepared to provide. In the case of the food retailer, the surviving cofounder died prior to its 52nd anniversary. Had Casey not chronicled his memoirs, they would have been lost forever.Special Events: Planning a Meaningful Groundbreaking

   At the top of the list are PR veterans Donna Vandiver, Cathy Dunkin and Marie Casey.

   Another PR veteran, Marie Casey, owner of Casey Communications, has built a solid reputation in the 18 years since she began her company. She started out as a journalist writing for publications including Suburban Journals and Construction News & Review. This practical experience gave her great insights into the value of PR professionals to reporters and editors.
   
   "After five years as a journalist, I started Casey Communications in 1983, because I had a gut-level belief that the knowledge I gained as a reporter would be of value to an organization's communications efforts."
   
   Casey's hunch was right and her background as journalist for a construction trade magazine led her to specialize in that area with architects, construction firms, real estate developers and homebuilders as her client base. Today, her clients include HOK Architects, Paric Corporation, ARCO Construction, and homebuilders such as Richards Bruno and Mullenix Properties. She has since branched out, and also counts Schnuck Markets and several banks on her roster too.
   
   ...
   Casey has seven full-time employees with billings just over $1 million.
   
   Casey says one of her more memorable projects was handling all the communications tied to Schnuck's acquisition of National in 1995. Work involved intense communications planning, writing of news releases, speeches, employee communications, and a great deal of community relations work, and working with the news media to deliver the story on a timely basis. She says the PR program was an important contributor to blending the two corporate cultures and earning the patronage of new customers for Schnucks.
   
   ...
   Casey offers her own explanation as to why PR appeals to women. "This profession requires tremendous attention to relationships, sensitivities and details and many women are strong in these areas. The desire to build cooperative relationships rather than competitive ones also may play a part." Casey adds that there are men who also have these attributes. In fact, she hired her husband who now works with her, although she is the majority owner of the company.

   Marie Casey of Casey Communications, spokeswoman for DFC Group and DESCO, also said the developers were unwilling to release the details.
   
   "We are not in a position to comment on who may or may not be contributors until details have been finalized," Casey said.
