Paul Nathan Caffey Jr.
Paul Nathan Caffey Jr., age 82, passed away peacefully on April 7, 2025, in Stillwater, Oklahoma surrounded by loved ones. Paul was born on June 8, 1943, in Seminole, Oklahoma, to Paul Caffey Sr. and Beatrice (Reavis) Caffey. Paul dedicated his life to the oil and gas industry, where he worked with pride and professionalism for many decades. He moved to Hennessey, Oklahoma in the 1970’s where he operated Seminole Frac Tank Inc. with his father. Paul was known in the community for professionalism, integrity, reliability, and expertise. After the 1980’s oil bust Paul continued in the oil and gas industry as a Health Safety & Environmental professional. Paul earned the respect and admiration of his peers in the industry and left a lasting legacy with family and friends all over the country. Paul was affiliated with many organizations, including the Oklahoma Safety Council, National Safety Council and several oil and gas petroleum organizations. He was member of the Hennessey Masonic Lodge. More than anything, Paul was a family man. He found his greatest joy in taking care of family spending time with those he loved whether that was sharing stories, enjoying a good meal, or simply being together. His laughter, warmth, and easy-going nature made every moment with him special. Paul loved nothing more than being surrounded by his children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and creating cherished memories that will live on in their hearts. His favorite memory is when his entire immediate family flew to Hawaii in 2013. It was an amazing trip and a lifelong dream of his. A beautiful part of Paul’s story is his walk of faith. Before the final chapter of his life and during many of his years, Paul accepted Christ as his Savior. He faced his final days with peace in his heart and unafraid to go home. His confidence and calm were a powerful testimony to those around him. This is a quiet, profound reminder of God’s grace and presence. He is survived by his beloved wife, Darlene Caffey of 63 years of marriage. His children, Debbie Parks and husband Terry, Don Caffey and wife Tiffany, Jay Caffey and wife Brooke. Grandchildren, Tiana Spurrier and husband Andrew, Caden Caffey, Cruz Caffey, Macie Caffey, Faith Caffey and Ava Caffey. Great grandchildren, Tulsi Spurrier and Talulah. Paul’s legacy is one of love, strength, and unwavering dedication to those he cared for. He will be deeply missed by all who had the honor of knowing him. A celebration of Paul’s life will be held in the near future, details to come. All who knew and loved him are welcome to attend and share in honoring his memory. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to a charity of their choice. Under the direction of Sanders Funeral Service.
