Bobbie Davis Obituary
Bobbie Jean Fentress Davis, 84, of Seagrove, passed away on August 18, 2025, at Forsyth Medical Center.
Bobbie was born on July 24, 1941, in Greensboro, North Carolina, to the late Charles Way Fentress and Wilma Hanner Fentress. She lived a life full of energy, love, and adventure. Family was always at the center of her heart, and she was a devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who cherished time with her loved ones above all else.
Her home was always neat and welcoming, a reflection of her caring nature. Age never slowed her down—she enjoyed going out on the boat, dancing and shagging, cheering on the Carolina Panthers and the Atlanta Braves, and even riding motorcycle. She loved to travel, always ready to experience new adventures. Bobbie was truly the life of the party, able to keep up with everyone, and she would give the shirt off her back to anyone in need.
She worked for many years at Burlington Industries in textiles, where her hard work and dedication were well recognized.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Gurnie Edward Davis.
She is survived by her sons, William Davis (Cyndi Hughes) and Greg Davis (Tammy); sisters, Patty Tolbert and Brenda Tomlin (Richard); as well as eight grandchildren and numerous great-grandchildren.
The family will receive friends on Wednesday, August 20, 2025, from 1:00–1:45 p.m. at the Glenn “Mac” Pugh Chapel, 437 Sunset Ave, Asheboro. The funeral service will follow at 2:00 p.m.
