Luther Davis Obituary

Luther Myrl Davis, 68, passed away on Sunday, October 22, 2023 at his home. Luther Myrl as most folks called him was kind hearted, loved his chickens, he loved to fish, he loved hunting but his favorite kind of hunting was rabbit hunting. He loved spending time with his grandsons and he had several close friends that he spent time with. Luther helped raise half the kids in the community and he wouldn't have had it any other way! He was a truck driver and a Baptist. Luther will be remembered for his kindness and patience.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Virginia "Gin" and Arthur 'Tater" Davis; both sets of grandparents and several aunts, uncles and cousins.
