In March 2012, Buddy was diagnosed with blood cancer. After treatment he was well enough to go on the road to perform. On August 19, 2017 he suffered from another stroke and was hospitalized once again.
Sorrowful news posted on Buddy's Go Fund Me page: "It is with heavy heart that I say, Buddy Cage passed away peacefully last night. It has been an honor to know him and an honor to see each of your own stories of him through your eyes. Each one of those stories and well wishes were shared with him."
