Donald Ray "Bubba" Caudill

Donald Ray "Bubba" Caudill, born June 12, 1949, passed away peacefully on March 18, 2025, at Tuscany Gardens in Pataskala, Ohio. 

He was preceded in death by his parents, Clarence and Margaret Caudill; his brother, Timothy Caudill; his sister, Patricia Caudill; and his nephew, Michael Caudill, along with other beloved family members who welcomed him home.

Don is survived by his devoted wife of 41 years, (815, “Ok, Fine”) Phyllis Caudill; his nieces, Melinda Hartley and Melissa Caudill, whom he cherished like daughters; his sister-in-law, Lisa Caudill-Fitzpatrick; his nieces Megan Hillard, Lauren Archibald, Kylie Wilson and Megan Turos. He also leaves behind a host of great-nieces and great-nephews.

A true outdoorsman at heart, Don found joy in hunting and fishing. He also had a passion for bowling and golf. His love for animals was evident in the many furry companions he adored throughout his life.

Don was deeply loved by those who knew him and will be sorely missed. 

Arrangements are being handled by Shaw-Davis Funeral Home. A Celebration of Life will be planned at a later date.
