Mr. Davis grew up in Alabama City, Alabama. He attended Emma Sansom High School. He was an honorable Vietnam Veteran, receiving a Purple Heart for his sacrifice. After his return, he married Barbara Davis(Momma), and worked at Goodyear, Anniston Army Depot, and was a mail carrier for the Gadsden Post Office. He served in the Southside Fire Department and the Etowah County Sheriffs Department for many years. He loved Auburn football and later piddled with the banjo. He was a man of few words but you knew where you stood with him. He was a tough guy, but had a beautiful heart. His quirky sense of humor made you laugh at the irony of life. He was devoted to his family and friends.

He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Barbara Davis; daughters Karen(Mark) Monday and Kristi Farley Guined; grandchildren Kirsten, Hunter, and Alyssa Farley; brother George(Mary) Davis, and his best buddy Rufus.

Pallbearers will be Mark Monday, Hunter Farley, Tom Johnson, Jeff Abernathy, Stanley Stroup, Mike Sigmon. And Shane Fuller.

Special thanks to Dr. KJ Shah and the nurses of Riverview ICU.

Visitation will be Friday at 1:0] p.m.
