Ret. Sgt. Stanford H. Cagley, passed away on November 11, 2022, at home from natural causes. He was born on November 27, 1954, in Oliver Springs, Tennessee. Stanford (Goatman) considered most people a friend. He loved to always tell jokes, and most of them were corny; but he would bring laughter. He was a prankster also. He loved to hunt, fish, and do wood carving and painting. Until his health got bad, he was always outside doing something. He retired from the Tennessee National Guard in 1998, after serving 22 years, and 8 months. He loved his time in the guards, and we will leave it at that.
