My memories are full of fun, fond, memories of a great father who loved his family. I keep seeing him cleaning the pool with a beer in his hand and a big smile..." Hi girls, ready for the pool?" He was so fun. I admired his calm ways. RIP Mr. Davis. My prayers are for Mrs. Davis and Mary, Sally, and Jen... and the rest of the family.

I worked with Bob Davis & Bob Nolan at the Chevrolet V8 Plant in 1955. Bob's wife worked in Salary payroll. Bob was one of my mentors. Ate out with him many a night as we worked a lot of overtime at the V8. You know when you are getting old when the plant bldg. you started out in your career has been torn down. Sorry to hear about the Alzheimer's as my wife also has it. Bob will be missed. Frank
