AUGUST 7, 1943 - MARCH 25, 2024
Sharon Kay Caley, aged 80, a resident of Topeka, KS, joined her
heavenly father on Monday, March 25, 2024 with loving family
by her side. Born on August 7, 1943, in Topeka, KS, to Richard
Thomas and Gladys “Marie” Holthusen. She married Alford
Shaver on June 21, 1958, in Lyndon, KS, and later found
happiness with Larry Caley, whom she married on October 31,
2007, in Niceville, FL. Both Alford and Larry have preceded her
in death.
Sharon's journey was filled with love and dedication to her
family and community. Her years of service at the City of
Topeka were marked by dedication and hard work. She found
joy in creating ceramics, basking in the sun on the beach, and
cherishing moments with her loved ones.
She was preceded in death by her children Alford “Dean”
Shaver, Liz Shaw, Christopher Holthusen and Sandy Shaver,
along with grandchildren Shannon and David “Bubba” Shaw,
Kyla Rae and Darren Shaver, and son-in-law Bobby Bingham.
Sharon leaves behind a legacy of love and strength. Survived by
her son Walter (Joyce) Shaver of Topeka and daughter Sherry
Bingham of Meriden, KS. She is also survived by her sisters Gina
(Richard) Castille of Crestview, FL, Christina Dilley of Topeka, KS,
brothers Dick (Georgia) Holthusen and Mike (Sarah) Holthusen,
both of Topeka, KS, along with numerous nieces, nephews,
grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
We, the family, would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude for
the love, support and condolences during this time. Your
kindness and presence have been a source of comfort.
