Karie Anne Bray Cada, 50, of Denver, NC, passed away on October 17, 2022 after a hard fought battle with liver cancer.
Karie was born on February 9, 1972 to Suzanne (Fossum) and Jerry Bray in Warren Michigan. Her family moved to Cambridge, WI when she was 6 years old. Karie is a graduate of Cambridge High School class of 1990. She received her B.S. in Exercise Science at Winona State University and earned her Master’s Degree in Exercise Physiology at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.
Karie’s first job was as a Clinical Research Associate with Duke Clinical Research Institute in Durham, NC. Karie and her husband, Steve, began their own business, Cada SR Consultants, in 2001. Karie worked as an Independent Contractor with several clinical research institutes over the past 20 years. Her most recent position was as a Principle Consultant with Reg Dev Inc. based in San Diego, CA.
Karie met the love of her life Steve, in 1996. The pair were wed in Cambridge, WI in 1999. Karie and Steve went on to have 2 beautiful daughters, Aidyn (21) and Aubrie (17). Nothing brought Karie more joy than to watch her girls grow into the incredible young women they are today.
Karie was always a caring, self-less person who raised thousands of dollars in the fight against breast cancer. She participated in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-day walk annually for more than 10 years. Her passion for this charity was contagious as she recruited numerous friends and family members who joined her over the years.
