May 15, 1945-December 24, 2020

 

Mary Ann Cady, age 75 of Buffalo, Minnesota passed away Thursday, December 24, 2020.  She was born May 15, 1945 in San Francisco, California, the daughter of Martin Patrick Maher and Dorothy Maher.  On June 19, 1971 she and Timothy Cady were married at Holy Name Catholic Church in Vesta, Minnesota.  Mary and Tim settled down in Buffalo, MN and made the community their home.  They raised two children, Michael and Erin, and were members for many years at St. Francis Xavier.  Mary had an active social life and developed many lifelong friends in the community.  Besides being a wife and mother, she was also a grandmother to eight grandchildren.  She enjoyed traveling, gardening, cooking and spending time with her children, grandchildren and friends.  Toward the later stages of Mary’s life, she was diagnosed with Alzheimers, but for the first few years she certainly did not let that slow her down.  After residing at Cokato Heritage Place Memory Care Center for over a year, she moved closer to home at Parkview Care Center.  She eventually passed away from complications of COVID-19.

She is preceded in death by her brother, Patrick Maher, and by her father and mother.  Mary is survived by her husband Tim Cady; her son Michael (Rachel) Cady and their children, Ethan, Ryan, Adam, Annemarie, and John Paul; her daughter Erin (Jeremy) Macheel and their children Andrew, Jacob, and Cady: her brother Bill (Jan) Maher and her sister Margy (Wayne) King.  She is also survived by her many close friends and will be missed by all who knew her.

There will be a family service on January 2, 2021 at St. Francis Xavier in Buffalo Minnesota.  The family is planning to have a celebration in the summer of 2021.

    Dear Cady Family:
    My deepest sympathy on the loss of such a wonderful wife/mother/grandmother. Mary was such a kind, caring person. I remember often her words of encouragement as I was going through treatment for breast cancer. Mary was one of those special people who gave much of herself to others. May she rest in the Peace of Heaven.
