Our thoughts & prayers are with the Davis family. We rented a house from Kilby & Gladys back in the 70's. They were both special people.

To the Davis family,
May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. I always thought a lot of Kilby and Gladys and they were both such sweet and kind people. I will be thinking of you all.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. Mrs. Davis was a wonderful person who was always doing for others. When you think of a Christian woman she was a perfect example. You can't help but smile when you think of her.

Be comforted in knowing that God is with you during this difficult time and that there are friends that also share your sorrow with you. I find Psalm
121 to be very comforting during these times.
