Mickey Loyd Cauble's Obituary
Mickey Loyd Cauble, 80, passed away at home on Wednesday, April 8, 2026 at 4:30pm while surrounded by his family in prayer.
Mickey was the son of George and Glennie Cauble, who preceded him in death. He was blessed with a loving sister, Brenda Cauble Howell (Marshall) of Norwood.
On June 4, 1967, he married Carol Jean Lefler who survives. Mickey was blessed with four children including Kendy (Damon) of Love Valley, Carla (Kevin) of Midland, John (Christa) of Kannapolis, and Laura, deceased. Grandchildren include Kenna, Ethan, Chloe, Will, Mary-Elizabeth, Landon, Carlynn, Jay, Xander, and Cyrus. Great grandchildren are Serena, Chase, Brooks, and Ivy. A special “son” to Mickey is Jeremy Bowers.
From an early age, Mickey loved to create items from wood and it became obvious this was his calling from God. As he continued, he became a businessman, and later a teacher in the woodshop at Albemarle High School where he found his greatest success, working with young people. He strongly felt God had led him from the beginning, growing from a painfully shy young child to an empowered man who spoke before a filled auditorium at ECU where he gave help to many others who were struggling to create successful programs for students.
Mickey never forgot that he was led by the Lord to use his god-given talents to bring out the best in others.
Services for Mickey Cauble will be April 18, 2026 at 2:00 in First Lutheran Church in Albemarle, NC. Visitation will begin at 12:30 in the church parlor. Following the service, close friends and family will exit for interment in the columbarium while all others will exit to the gym for food and fellowship.
