McCOOK, Neb. — Cindy (Orman) Wickizer, age 61, went peacefully home to be with the Lord, on Oct. 11, 2021, at her brothers’ house in Lincoln, Neb., as Stage 4 melanoma finally won its six-year running battle.

She was born in McCook, Neb., on Feb. 18, 1960, to Wilfred and Erma (Williams) Orman.

Cindy grew up attending Peace Lutheran Church in McCook, was a 1978 graduate of McCook High School, and went on to earn her certificate in secretarial science from McCook Junior College. She medically retired from Valmont in 2016 following her cancer diagnosis.

Her passing was preceded by her parents, Wilfred and Erma; and grandparents.

She is survived by her brother and sister-in-law, Doug and Lorrie Orman; daughter, Jennifer Wickizer, two granddaughters, whom she adored; several aunts; an uncle; and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

A celebration of life will be Friday, Oct. 22, 2021, at 11 a.m., at Peace Lutheran Church, McCook, Neb.

Final interment will be at the maternal family plot in Ash Creek Cemetery northeast of Lewellen, Neb., sometime next summer.
