Dear Mrs. Davis, Robert, Dean & Family:
I was saddened to learn of Don's passing. Over the years of my great friendship with Robert, I have enjoyed getting to know Don and each of you. I wanted to share with you how impressed I have always been with the Davis family. Don was clearly a warm and well respected leader and family head. You all reflect those qualities and have made me feel very comfortable in your presence. May the warm memories and lessons from Don's life continue to...

Mr. Davis was a great leader in the community and state, and was always a pleasure to see and visit with...his enthusiasm, positive outlook and love of people was always uplifting to those around him.

Dear Alice,
I was so sorry to hear of Don's passing. He was a great guy & did a lot for our city/state. You both have always been very nice to me. I was not aware of his illness, but hope that you were able to handle it & his passing was a God sent.
My thoughts & prayers are with you. I would have sent a note, but did not know your address.
You can still have a fulfilling life with your kids, grandkids & memories.
My thoughts & prayers are with you.
Have fun,
Peggy...

My heart goes out to Mrs Davis, Robert Jr and Dean. May God Bless all of you. And God Bless your Dad. Your Dad was one of a Kind. He was liked and Loved by so many people. He surely will be missed.

Alice, Dean, Robert and family:
Serving on the Council and in the House with Don was a wonderful experience. Playing golf with him all over Florida was a wonderful experience. Dade Delegation-Duval Delegation dinners were a wonderful experience. Being Don's friend was a blessing. He will always be an example of how to serve others and how to be a loyal friend. I miss him. If I can ever be of service to the Davis family please do not hesitate to call.

Mrs. Davis, Robert & Dean,
My deepest sympathies on your loss. I remember many great childhood memories on San Martario Circle. Mrs. Davis, you were the scariest Halloween witch I ever saw! :). I loved my childhood and your family was very much apart of it. Mr. Davis was a treasure in those memories. I will keep all of ya'll in my prayers and I will always remember! Thank you, Mr. Davis, for being there during my childhood to keep us kids out of trouble!

Dear Alice, Robert & Dean

We will never forget the fond memories we have of Don. The years we spent together growing up in Deerwood were very special to us. Please know that he will always have an exclusive place in our hearts. He was someone who had a positive impact on so many people and we feel fortunate to be a part of that. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you.

Sincerely,
