Obituary:  Mrs. Dora F. Davis

 

Mrs. Dora F. Davis of Slocomb was called to meet her late husband, Jerry Davis, in final rest on Sunday, January 20, 2013 at Flowers Hospital.  She was 90.

 

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 23, in Sorrells Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Dan Raley and Rev. Dicky McAllister officiating.  Burial will follow in Christian Home Baptist Church Cemetery with Sorrells Funeral Home of Slocomb directing. 

 

The family will receive friends at the funeral home on Tuesday from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m.  At other times, the family will be at 512 West Court Street.

 

She was born on August 26, 1922 in Geneva County.  Mrs. Davis was a dedicated Christian member of Slocomb First Baptist Church and a member of Lydia’s Sunday School Class.  She took great pride of being a faithful and loving wife, a caring mother, grandmother, great grandmother and was a friend to many.  At a tender young age she married the love of her life, a World War II soldier, the late Jerry Davis.  She was employed at Van Heusen Company for over 20 years.  Her best lesson, the one she modeled for us, was that a selfless life devoted to family and others is the highest example of God’s love.

 

She was preceded in death by her husband, her parents:  Mathias Franklin and Dellie McDonald Crutchfield.

 

Left to cherish her memories are her two children:  Sandra Davis of Slocomb and Jerry Lamar Davis (Deloris) of Cochran, GA; five grandchildren:  Jennifer Creel, Jeremy Campbell (Jennifer) both of Slocomb, Shelby Hutto of Dothan, Connie Barlow of Conyers, GA, Chris Goodwin of Eastman, GA; seven great grandchildren:  Marissa Creel, Macie Creel, Hunter and Jaylee Campbell all of Slocomb, Jessica and Grant Barlow of Conyers, GA, Jacob Goodwin of Eastman, GA; one sister:  Helen Hobbs (Buck Hobbs) of Hartford, AL; one brother:  Johnny Crutchfield (Jonnie Ruth) of  Hartford, AL; several nieces and nephews.
