Vicki Cady Obituary

Cady, Vicki died peacefully on October 2 in her home surrounded by the loving members of her family and sustained by her abiding faith. Vicki was born in 1940, the middle of five daughters, to Frances and Barney Alston in Ponca City, Oklahoma. After graduating high school in 1958, she attended the University of Oklahoma, graduating Phi Beta Kappa. Shortly afterwards, she moved to Wichita with her husband Bill Oliver to begin their life in Kansas and raise their two children, Carrie and Trey. Vicki taught junior high English for two years at Truesdell Jr. High School before retiring to become a full-time mother. In 1974 Vicki married Jack Cady and they spent 38 happy years together enjoying the things they loved - tennis, golf, travel family and friends. Vicki excelled at many things but her real talent was in cultivating and curating friendships. Her numerous friends along with her grandchildren were the epicenter of joy and happiness in her life. Vicki was preceded in death by her husband, Jack Cady. She is survived by her four sisters, Lynn Belmer, Sally Shore, Bonnie Smith and Peggy Allen; her daughter, Carrie (Bruce) Bertram and her son, Trey (Ginger) Oliver; and her beloved grandsons, Tyler Bertram and Quaid & Alston Oliver. A rosary will be said on Thursday, October 17 at 6:00 pm at St. Thomas Aquinas Church. Services will be held on Friday, October 18 at 10:30 am also at St. Thomas Aquinas Church. In lieu of flowers, a memorial has been established with Harry Hynes Memorial Hospice. Share condolences at www.CozineMemorial.com. Services by Broadway Mortuary.

I called yesterday to wish Vicki Happy Birthday and discovered such sad news. Vicki was such a special friend beginning at Haig Point. When last we spoke I learned of her diagnosis and prayed for her recovery. Geoff and I have many wonderful memories of her and have and will think of her often, Our deepest sympathy is with her family.

Carrie and all the family,

I just heard of Vicki's passing and my heart is so heavy. We were out of touch for the last year, and I had no idea she was sick. Jerry joins me in sending love and condolences to all of you. She will live always in our memories.

The service today for our dear & well loved friend, was beautiful. I know Vicki would approve. The hearts of her many friends were heavy with sadness but thankful she is no longer in pain. I was particularly touched to hear Amazing Grace sung as I can remember her sternly reminding a group of us...on several occasions over the years....that we were to be sure it was sung at her funeral.
To you Carrie & Trey & your spouses. .. her beloved grandchildren & sisters, all of whom she loved dearly, thank you.
As we tried to comfort & help you during these difficult days, in fact your courage helped strengthen us.
I send you blessings as you go forward knowing Vicki continues to watch over you. Love, Linda

When our paths would cross, Vicki was always bubbly and happy and surrounded by friends. I know she will be missed by many, especially her beloved children and her best pals. She's pain free now and reunited with family. Hugs for all who will miss her deeply.
