David Keith "Spanky"
McCage Nov 19, 1946 - Nov 9, 2021
Posted by Martha Reddout
On Tuesday, November 9, 2021, the world lost a humble and kind man,
David Keith "Spanky" McCage, 74. He passed away at his residence
surrounded by his family. His journey in life began in Thackerville on
November 29, 1946, one of the middle children born to Burton and Ruby Jo
Northcutt McCage.
Spanky was a lifelong area resident and a 1965 Thackerville High School
graduate. He enlisted in the United States Army National Guard on
January 7, 1966 during the Vietnam War and was honorably discharged on
January 6, 1972. During his time in the service, Spanky married the love
of his life Barbara Sue Bond on October 13, 1966 in Thackerville. After
his time in the service, he went back to work for the United States
Postal Service and retired after 41 years.
Spanky was a member of the Baptist Church in Thackerville. He enjoyed
playing all sports, and as he got older, golf became his number one
hobby. He loved going to the coffee shop. Although he had several
hobbies he enjoyed, nothing topped spending time with his grandkids and
attending their sporting events. Spanky was known for his dedication and
love for his family.
Left behind to cherish his memory are his wife, Barbara Sue McCage of
the home; sons, Mark Eugene McCage and wife Beddie of Thackerville and
Shane Keith McCage of Thackerville; daughter, Tina Sue Knabe and husband
Michael of Era, Texas; brother, Charles Burton "Shorty" McCage and wife
Judy of Thackerville; sisters, Betty Camelia Barnes and Pamela Joy
Pearman, both of Thackerville; grandchildren, Hunter, Logan, Tanner,
Hayley, Lex, Briana, and Raegan; great-grandchildren, Mark Holden, Cason
Lee, and Wyatt Keith; numerous nieces and nephews; and extended family
members.
Spanky was preceded in death by his parents, Burton and Ruby Jo McCage;
and brothers, Donald, Joe and Jim McCage.
Services for Spanky were held at 10 a.m., Friday, November 12 at the
Flanagan-Watts Funeral Home Chapel, Marietta with Brother Murray
McMurray officiating and Elder Charles "Shorty" McCage assisting.
