David Michael Cue

David Michael Cue, a cherished soul known affectionately as David to his friends and family, passed away surrounded by loved ones on June 10, 2025, in Greenville, SC. Born on February 15, 1968, in Laurinburg, NC, David's journey through life was marked by an unwavering spirit of love, dependability, and generosity that touched the hearts of all who knew him.

David's life was a testament to the strong bonds of family and friendship. His 25-year marriage to Debra Cue, remained a cornerstone of mutual respect and care even after their separation.

Together, they raised a family that became David's pride and joy. His legacy lives on through his children, Robert Cue and his wife Candace, Brandy Cue and her husband John Kennedy, and William Cue and his wife Haley. David's love for his family was mirrored in the joy he found in his grandchildren, Sebastian, Ethan, Connor, Sean, Autumn, and Wyatt, each of whom brought immense happiness and purpose to his life.

David's siblings, Sandy Gold and Keith Cue along with the memory of his beloved late sister Lynn, shared in the journey of life's highs and lows, always bound by the love instilled in them by David's mother, Geraldine Norton Payne, and his late father, William Michael Cue.

While the Cue family was an assembly of vibrant personalities and shared memories, David found peace by simply being home. He was a gentle man who brought laughter, thoughtfulness, and a deep sense of comfort to those around him.

Professionally, David was a respected business owner in the upstate, where his integrity and skill earned him the admiration of his colleagues and the wider community. David's passions painted the picture of a man who found joy in the simple pleasures of life.

Fishing was his escape—he found serenity in the stillness of the water, patiently hoping for a bite. His love for NASCAR was matched only by his enthusiasm for his extensive collection of baseball cards and Diecast model cars, each piece a cherished memory in a collection that spanned decades.

Road trips were a favorite pastime for David, who relished the freedom of the open road and the promise of new sights around every bend. He was particularly fond of driving into the snow, an exciting contrast to his Southern roots, and a reminder of the beauty and diversity of the landscapes he so loved to explore.

His legacy isn’t just in what he accomplished, but in the kindness he showed, the wisdom he carried, and the children he raised. He was always there when they needed him—steady, understanding, and full of love. That same love lives on in them and in the hearts of all who knew him.

As we honor the life of David Michael Cue, we celebrate a life lived with quiet strength and purpose — a life that exemplified the best of the human spirit. His memory will be a source of love and selflessness that will continue to inspire and guide us in the days to come.
