OTTO - Marie Cabe Pangle Olive, 87, passed away on Monday, June 20, 2022.
Born in Macon County, she was the daughter of the late Emory and Blanche Rogers Cabe. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her first husband, Zeb Franklin Pangle; second husband, Donald Cole Olive; daughter, Teresa Jerlean Pangle; sister, Alean Buchanan; and stepson, Donald Jerry Olive.
Marie was a member of the Iotla Baptist Church, where she was a member of the JOY club and worked with other church ministries. Marie’s career included serving over 20 years with Farm Credit Services. She loved serving her community and supporting the local farmers. She was an amazing gardener, had a green thumb and found pleasure working among her flowers and vegetables. She loved baking, crossword puzzles, and sudokus. She collected cookbooks and created the most beautiful pies, cakes, and delicious recipes. She took great pride in reflecting on her children and grandchildren’s accomplishments.
She enjoyed traveling and visited Japan, California, Oregon, Washington and many other states, but she always returned to her homeland. In fact, she took her last breath in the very same Tessentee area that she took her first breath. She will always be remembered for her fun, dry sense of humor and quick wit. She will be missed but her spirit is alive and well.
Marie is survived by her children, Michael Pangle (Barbara), Sterling Pangle (Barbara), David Pangle (Diane) and Sharon Goldsmith (Bill); brother, Hilton Cabe; sister, Jerlean Cabe Buchanan; six grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren and several step-grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
Marie requested there be no formal services. A private celebration of life will be held with immediate family members at a later date. Interment will be in Wright Cemetery at Drymans Chapel Church.
