January 14, 1937 – July 15, 2020
Mary Evelyn Cady, 83, was ushered into Heaven on July 15, 2020 after a short but courageous battle with ALS. Mary was born in Indianapolis to Ernest and Martha Ruth Outland on January 14, 1937.
On September 3, 1954 Mary married the love of her life, Chester Duane Cady. Their courtship began at an early age as they were neighbors and Duane would show up at her house to play basketball. Shooting hoops together would eventually lead to enjoying 64 years together raising their family.
Mary retired in 1998 after working over 20 years at Mt. Vernon High School as a cook and baker. In retirement, Mary and Duane enjoyed playing bingo (and regularly winning) at weekly games sponsored by area senior care facilities. They also enjoyed traveling and supporting their grandchildren by attending their numerous school and sports activities.
Besides being a hard worker, great cook and good friend, Mary leaves a legacy of faith drawn from her commitment to follow and serve her Savior, Jesus Christ. Her willingness to give of herself will remain a testimony of her faith and an example to her family.
Mary was preceded in death by her parents, husband, and sisters, Phyllis Jean Outland and Marcella Gallet. Family members surviving are son, Don (Sharon) Cady; daughter, Kathy (Rich) Moorlach; and grandchildren, Stephen (Jill) Cady, Sarah (Josh) Carroll, Olivia Moorlach, Alexandra Moorlach and Leighton Moorlach.
Family and friends will gather from noon to 2 p.m. on Friday, July 24, 2020 at Trinity Church, 9709 Allisonville Road, Indianapolis, followed by a funeral at 2 p.m.
