Obituary for Carl A. “Keen” Cable Our beloved father, grandfather, brother and friend, Carl A. “Keen” Cable, age 79, made his ascent to Heaven on Saturday, May 26, 2018 from his residence, and without a doubt he was singing and shouting upon his arrival. Carl was born in Butler, Tennessee to the late John Delbert and Mary Alice Guy Cable. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Gracie Potter Cable on July 26, 1996; and one sister and brother- in-law, Wilma and Elmer Dugger. Carl retired from Watauga Industries and was a member of Piney Grove Church of Christ in the Poga Community of Butler, but he attended Centerview Church of Christ in Elizabethton. Carl had been both a Men’s Sunday School teacher and a song leader at Piney Grove Church of Christ. He was a former Union President for Lee’s Dye Workers and was a staunch democrat and loved working elections. Carl had a gift for comforting those that were hurting and visited many nursing homes, hospitals and was in attendance at many, many funerals. He will be dearly missed by everyone that knew him, there is a void left in his absence. Those left to cherish his wonderful memories include his devoted and loving daughter, Sherry Cable, of the home; his son, Terry Cable, of the home; his grandchildren and the lights of his life, Brittany Cable, of the home and Shannon and Corey, both of Jonesborough; two great grandchildren, Mason and Mya, both of Jonesborough; his brother, Opal Cable, of Butler; his aunt, Callie Lockmiller, of Michigan; several beloved sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law, nieces, nephews and a multitude of church family, neighbors and friends, also survive.
