To The Davis Family,
How sorry I am for the loss of your Mother. I have so many great memories of growing up with Kathy and your Mom and the entire family. During the last few years, I could feel my Mother’s presence through the stories Kathy had for me about her Mom. Mrs. Davis had a great wit and enjoyed people and making them smile. What fun times we had and Bless her heart..all those girls and one boy!!!! She or he did not stand a chance. Thank you all for the great memories and God Bless you all. I will keep you in my heart and prayers. God Bless your Mother. He has welcomed her home.
My most heart felt thoughts and prayers go out to the family. You always took such good care of her!

Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. I have so many fond memories of your Mom/Grandma/
Great Grandma. She was a wonderful person who never lost her sense of humor. In fact, it wouldn’t surprise me if she made it rain tears of laughter under a double rainbow tomorrow to let you know that she made it there safely. Heaven will never be the same with the addition of the Shirley Willett Angel and that you can be assured!
Love to you all… xoxo
Kathy, Carolyn and Davis family, May my condolences bring you comfort and may my prayers ease the pain of this loss.
To all of the Davis Family – What a pleasant, happy, friendly and kind lady your Mother was! She and my Mother, Theresa Anderson, were such good friends and boy, did they have the time of their lives together! I know there is a big party in Heaven right now as they both are rejoicing, along with all their other classmates. I loved hearing all the stories of their school days at MBHS Class of ’46. I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers as you go through these very sad days. She will always be with you all!
Jeanette and Family,
