Jimmy L. Ducey, DO, 77, died May 2, 2016.
Jimmy was born Oct. 29, 1938, in Kansas City, Mo., to Leland and Ruth Ducey and was raised in Independence, Mo. A proud member of the Raytown High School Class of 1956, "Doc" then graduated from the University of KS School of Medicine and Osteopathy in 1963. He interned in Dallas, Texas, before beginning his medical career in Dayton, Ohio, then to TN, then to Wellsville, Kan., and finally ended up in Wichita as an Emergency Room Doctor at Riverside Hospital and Wesley Hospital. He retired from active private practice in 1985 due to complications from back surgery.
Doc always had a zest for knowledge. He was an avid reader (reading 8-10 newspapers a day), pilot, boater and sailor, and after retirement, an amateur photographer. Although hampered by physical limitations for many years, his quest for knowledge of all subjects never ceased. Doc leaves behind his two favorite "girls", his beloved wife, Michelle, and precious little dog, Alli, along with stepson, Clinton (Jessica) Suhr; son, Jimmy Ducey, II, and daughter, Cindy.
Jim will be missed by a multitude of friends and family, who knew he could always be counted on for his medical knowledge and all of the "useless information that cluttered his brain" that he was always so happy to share!
A memorial has been established with Harry Hynes Memorial Hospice, 313 S. Market, Wichita, KS 67202.
