David Ray McGaha

David McGaha, loving husband, father, and papaw, gained his angel wings on March 30th, 2021 after a short battle with cancer. David was born on January 11th, 1962 in Oklahoma City to Don and Lou McGaha.

David was well known in the Dibble community and was always extremely proud of his small town. He loved all sports and created many lasting bonds between his glory years playing sports in high school, coaching many years in little league, and many years watching his grandkids play.

David loved life and loved his family. He loved laughter and making others laugh. He had many great cheesy jokes to tell. He never met a stranger. He enjoyed sharing his knowledge with his grandkids. His greatest joy was his large family and took pride in raising his children. He overcame many obstacles, always smiling.

David is survived by his wife, Crystal McGaha; children, Jeremy McGaha and wife, Angie McGaha, of Dibble, Tara Merrick and husband, Kyle Merrick, of Blanchard, Tisha Greenwalt of Blanchard, Scotty Routon and wife, Jessica Routon, of Ada, Katie McGaha of Dibble, Brandon Earney and wife, Jana Earney, of Dibble, Brittany Simpson and husband, Billy Simpson, of Washington, and Cole McGaha and wife, Morgan McGaha, of Tuttle.
