Donald Cable Obituary
November 26, 1949 - September 10, 2025
Donald 'Hoza' Hale Cable, 75, of Henrico, Va., passed away on September 10, 2025. He is preceded in death by his parents, J Lawrence Cable and Dorothy Cable Boone; stepfather, Hiram Boone; and brother, Vincent Cable. He is survived by his loving wife of 17 years, Joan Dagenhart Cable; as well as his daughter; a granddaughter; and a host of cousins, nieces and nephews.
Donald worked for over 25 years in Richmond, Va. as a supervisor for Verizon, before retiring.

At home, he loved to spend time with Joan and their beloved dog, Khloe. His sudden loss will be felt by all who loved him.
The family will receive friends 1 to 4 p.m., Saturday, September 20, 2025, at Bliley's, 8510 Staples Mill Road. In lieu of flowers, please consider donating in his memory to The Salvation Army of Central Virginia Area Command or a charity of your choice. For condolences, see www.blileys.com.

Joan, my deepest sympathies for the loss of your husband.
I live across the way from you and would see your husband often either riding in his convertible, at the mailbox, or walking Khloe.
He would speak of you with so much love.
I will miss his smiling face.
