Willie leaves to cherish his memories one sister, Lissie D. Hood, of the residence, one brother, James Davis of Sutherlin, VA, one sister-in-law, Lois Davis of Sutherlin, VA, a special nephew, Clifton Powell of Danville, VA, and a host of other relatives and friends.

In addition to his parents, Willie was preceded in death by one son, Willie Davis Jr, three sisters, Rena Fallen, Rosa and Dorothy Davis, four brothers, Charlie, Sammy, Albert, and Freddy Davis.

God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be, so He did what He knew best. He wrapped His arms around you and whispered, “Come to me.” You gave no one a last farewell nor even said good-bye, you were gone before we knew it.

But you did not go alone for a part of us went with you; to some you will be forgotten, to others just a part of the past, but to us who loved and lost you, your memories will always last.
