Pat and I send our deepest sympathies to Virginia and all the rest of the family. The Davis reunions will not be the same without Vivian because he was always making others laugh and enjoy themselves. I wish I could have been with the family for visitation and the funeral but my health just would not allow me to do so.

Take care and know the family members are all in my prayers seeking God's blessings now and forever.

Davis Family,
Sorry to hear of your loss. I meet Warren a few years ago at S&K when he was buying suit for his daughters wedding. That was when we figured out that we were related. He was my dad's(Doug)cousin. He looked so much like one of my Dad's brothers that had passed away in 1993. He made me promise that when we would have our
Davis Reunion that I had better speak
to him. So this year before I left
the reunion I went an talked with him
like I had promised that I would.
Thoughts and prayers are with you and
your family.

I send loving smypathy to you all.

My best memory of Warren is when I was about 10 years old (50 years ago). I spend a lot of time with him and Ginny that summer. I was a skinny kid and wanted to gain weight. He told me to eat a lot of peanut butter and it worked. He was so kind and loving to me. He and Ginny were so young and didn't have children yet.
I have many wonderful memories of them from that summer.
