Dorothy Davis Obituary

Dorothy Bour Davis, 88, of Bethel Park, died Monday, Aug. 26, 2013. She was the beloved wife of the late Laddie D. Davis; mother of devoted daughters, Suan (Henry) DeLuca, Mary Ann and Jane; son, Stephen Davis; adored grandmother of Hank, Elise and Maura DeLuca and Stephen Pierce Davis; daughter of the late Henry and Anna Bour; sister of Elizabeth Egan, Tom Bour (Nancy), the late William and David Bour; sister-in-law of Laura Bour and Madeline Donoughe; and is also survived by many nieces and nephews. "Dot," "Mummy," "Gram," "Aunt Dorothy," was revered by her family and highly regarded by all who knew her. Dorothy's talents were in both intellectual pursuits and the domestic arts. She finished the Sunday New York Times crossword puzzle with ease, read daily and played bridge until just recently. She taught her daughters and granddaughters to sew at a very young age and schooled many in the art of pie baking. All will remember her kind, gracious nature. Friends will be welcomed 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesday at LAUGHLIN MEMORIAL CHAPEL, 222 Washington Road, Mt. Lebanon. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated 10 a.m. Thursday in St. Anne Church. Interment will be in Queen of Heaven Cemetery. If desired, memorials may be made to a charity of your choice. http://www.laughlinfuneralhome.com.
