I'm so very sorry to hear of Pastor Davis' passing. He was a wonderful man and friend. He resided over my fathers funeral service at my request. You will be sorely missed by all that you touched in this world. Rest In Peace my Friend and I hope to see you again in the Kingdom of our Heavenly Father.

I was saddened to read this news this morning. Pastor Davis united Dave and I in marriage and we'll always be thankful for that. Sending love and strength to his wife and family during this difficult time.

Corrine and Family. Many, Many years have passed since I last saw John. He, during those times was a Pastor in the making. At EPC I was a dorm buddy and really got to know John as a Young Child of God. God placed him in the hands of Corrine during those years and cultivated both Him and Her to grow together in raising a family and always holding hands with Almighty God. God has given You and Corrine Grace throughout your years together and in return through your time here together both of you have been a Blessing. For the lives you have been Given to touch with your love and passion for Christ You have fought a good fight, You have finished your course, and you have kept the Faith." . God Bless you and your Family during these days of sorrow. Dick McMullen Fort Collins, Co. EPC 61-63

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. When I remember John there are so many good memories. Football games playing for the White team. Leah says she remembers John's laugh and his love of "chocolate puddin". He and Corrine made a loving and fun couple. With prayers. Leah and Lew.

Alice and I will miss our dear friend John. What a wonderful legacy of service to Christ and others he leaves behind. Better still, what an enormous hope gripped his soul as he anticipated what was beyond the veil for him. Our prayers are with Corrine and the family. - Harry F. Wood

to leave a message is not worthy of this guestbook. to remember a legacy is. For ME Pastor Davis was the man!! without his leadership in NorthBranch Mi our little Christians School would not have been what it was. Without his daily walking the halls and spending time with us at lunch many of us would not remember his passion for the next generations. I will Never forget the impact he had on my life during such a difficult time in 1986. the servant has run the race. finished the course. and has laid down his crown at the Saviors feet. No doubt we was welcomed with well done good and faithful servant come and enjoy the blessings of the Lord!!
Good Bye Pastor John. we will say Hello again some day!

I spent 66 days in the hospital waiting for heart surgery. Pastor Davis heard I was there from the kashner family and he stopped in to see me. She visited me every single morning and said a prayer with me every day until my surgery and then after. He was one of the sweetest kindest men I have ever known. His smile his jokes and just his all-around personality will be missed by all who knew him. I admired his Faith to the Lord greatly and I appreciated every moment I spent with him and I speak for myself on my husband. Rip Pastor Davis Toby and Lynn Fowler will miss you greatly
