To Adrienne and Davis Family,
My prayers and thoughts go out to you. May God keep you and guide you during this time. Landon was one of my most favorite people in the World. He truly was a Man of God. He always walked in the spirit of Love and could always speak an on time word of encouragement to me. He often would tell me that he was interceding on my behalf and I'll never ever forget that. I know that Landon is in the presence of Almighty God and he is experiencing joy unspeakable. I thank God for Landon Davis, he was a true brother, friend, encourager, and inspiration to me.

God Bless You

To The Davis Family,

We would like to express our deepest sympathy to you and your family for the loss of your father, uncle, etc. We will always remember his smile and his kind heart. At our family meeting just this past sunday my cousin Pat mentioned how he is probably in heavy with our mother, uncle Bo, uncle Buddy, our grandfather, B Jennings, Mr. Cheathams and the rest of the gang, singing the Seven Last Words. I remember singing a song entitled "Going Up Yonda", and truly believe that's where you'll find Landon, with the Lord. May God comfort you in the days to come.

To the Davis Family,
My deepest sympathy and heart felt prayers go out to you all at this time of loss. Mr. Landon (Daddy) always had a smile when ever I saw him and it just warm my heart everytime he said "Hi Baby". He will truely be missed and nothing can be said to ease your pain right now. However, know that the word of God says weeping only endures for a night and joy comes in the morning. Find joy in knowing that Mr. Landon (Daddy) knew and love the Lord and took refuge in his word. Daddy's physical journey has been completed and he's now been called to his home on high to be with the Father.

My love always,
