Cady died unexpectedly Friday at age 66.

He has been with the Iowa Supreme Court since 1998 and was appointed Chief Justice in 2011.

One decade ago, Cady wrote the unanimous opinion making same-sex marriage legal in Iowa. Last year, Cady led a 5-2 majority decision striking down a 72-hour waiting period for abortions.
