William D. 'Bill' Cady
Boise
Our husband, father, grandfather and best friend, William D. "Bill" Cady, passed away Sunday morning, Oct. 5, 2003, at St. Luke's Hospital while surrounded by family.
Bill was born Aug. 6, 1927, in Gooding, Idaho, to Dale and Verne Cady. After graduating from Hagerman High School in 1945, Bill married his "Catch of a Lifetime" and his sweetie from age 6 to the last minute of his life, Beatrice N. Durfee. As the times would have it, within 10 days of marriage, Bill was off to serve in the Navy. Bill had served his country for nine months when he was released with a medical discharge. He then returned to Hagerman, his wife and first-born son. He easily took up life as a family man and began farming in the spring of 1947. Bill and Bea had five children before they had had enough, D. Dale Cady, born 1946; Carolyn M. Cady Smith, born 1947; William D. (Bill) Cady Jr., born 1950; Steven P. Cady, born 1954; and Richard L. (Dick) Cady, born 1959. In 1950, the family moved from Hagerman to Boise where they continued farming until 1958.
In 1958 the farm was sold and Bill started his sales career working with first Lindsey, then Culligan water conditioning. Bill's success in sales which placed him as one of top 10 water conditioning salesmen in the nation with Culligan led him to starting his own dealership. In November of 1962 Bill opened his dealership, Servisoft Water Conditioning, with his sweetie and partner for life, Bea, where they worked side by side until they sold in 1989.
Bill loved to hunt and fish. He spent much of his free time with his wife, family and friends in the mountains of Idaho. He remained a man of the earth all his life and spent many hours gardening vegetables and flowers. Bill and Bea loved their yard and in the last few months of his life, one of Bill's joys was to sit out on his patio enjoying his garden.
All that had the pleasure of knowing him will miss him.
He is survived by his wife, sweetie and partner for life, Bea; their five children; 18 grandchildren; and 19 great-grandchildren.
The service will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 9, 2003, at Relyea Funeral Chapel, 318 N. Latah in Boise. Interment and graveside services will follow at 2 p.m. in Hagerman, Idaho, at Hagerman cemetery.
