Visit the Slone & Co. Funeral Directors website to view the full obituary.

Carlos Fernando Davila, a beloved figure who brightened the lives of many, was born on September 22, 1949, in Lima, Peru. He departed this world unexpectedly on September 14, 2025, in Cleveland, Ohio, leaving behind a legacy woven with love, joy, and a spirited passion for life.

Carlos was a devoted husband to his lifelong partner, Rosario Davila Liza. Their union was marked by deep affection and mutual respect, creating a warm and loving home for their family. As a father, he reveled in the joys of parenthood, cherishing every moment spent with his daughters, Melissa, Vanessa, and Yulissa. His role as a grandfather to Lissa, Borris, and Aitana, brought him immense satisfaction and pride, and he was always eager to share his wisdom and kindness with his grandchildren.

A man of many interests and talents, Carlos was passionate about professional soccer, which he followed tirelessly, demonstrating an unwavering enthusiasm for the sport. Dancing was another passion, as he loved to celebrate life through movement, often seen at family gatherings enjoying the rhythm and connection that dance brings. Above all, Carlos cherished spending time with his family, creating countless memories filled with love and laughter that will be treasured forever and seeing the world with his family right there by his side.

Carlos was born to Adela Davila Castillo and Fernando Davila, and he shared a close bond with his siblings—Bertha, Luisa, Elba, Maria, Dante, and Roxana—who remember him fondly for his kindness and vivacious spirit. Although his departure was sudden and unexpected, the impact he made during his time with us will resonate throughout the lives he touched.

He will be deeply missed not only by his family but also by friends and acquaintances who were fortunate enough to know such a remarkable man. Carlos Fernando Davila's life was a testament to the power of love, family, and a zest for life, and his memory will continue to inspire those who carry him in their hearts.

For all his fellow soccer players-please wear your favorite team's soccer jersey to the visitation in remembrance of Carlo's love for soccer.

Carlos Fernando Dávila, una figura querida que iluminó la vida de muchos, nació el 22 de septiembre de 1949 en Lima, Perú. Partió inesperadamente de este mundo el 14 de septiembre de 2025 en Cleveland, Ohio, dejando un legado tejido con amor, alegría y una apasionada pasión por la vida.

Carlos fue un esposo devoto para su compañera de toda la vida, Rosario Dávila Liza. Su unión estuvo marcada por un profundo afecto y respeto mutuo, creando un hogar cálido y amoroso para su familia. Como padre, disfrutaba inmensamente de la paternidad, atesorando cada momento compartido con sus hijas: Melissa, Vanessa y Yulissa. Su rol como abuelo de Lissa, Borris y Aitana le brindó una enorme satisfacción y orgullo, y siempre estaba dispuesto a compartir su sabiduría y bondad con sus nietos.

Hombre de muchos intereses y talentos, Carlos sentía una gran pasión por el fútbol profesional, al que seguía incansablemente, demostrando un entusiasmo inquebrantable por el deporte. El baile era otra de sus pasiones, pues amaba celebrar la vida a través del movimiento, y a menudo se le veía en reuniones familiares disfrutando del ritmo y la conexión que el baile aporta. Pero sobre todo, Carlos valoraba profundamente el tiempo en familia, creando innumerables recuerdos llenos de amor y risas que serán atesorados por siempre, viajando y viendo el mundo con su familia a su lado.

Carlos nació de Adela Dávila Castillo y Fernando Dávila, y compartió un estrecho lazo con sus hermanos: Bertha, Luisa, Elba, María, Dante y Roxana, quienes lo recuerdan con cariño por su amabilidad y espíritu vivaz. Aunque su partida fue repentina e inesperada, el impacto que dejó durante su tiempo con nosotros resonará en las vidas que tocó.

Será profundamente extrañado no solo por su familia, sino también por amigos y conocidos que tuvieron la fortuna de conocer a un hombre tan extraordinario. La vida de Carlos Fernando Dávila fue un testimonio del poder del amor, la familia y el entusiasmo por vivir, y su memoria continuará inspirando a quienes lo llevan en el corazón.

A todos sus compañeros futbolistas: por favor, usen la camiseta de su equipo favorito durante la visita, en honor al amor de Carlos por el fútbol.

Familiares y amigos están cordialmente invitados el jueves 18 de septiembre de 2025, de 5 a 8 p.m., en Slone & Co. Life Celebration Center, 3556 W. 130th Street, Cleveland, OH 44111, donde se llevarán a cabo oraciones y momentos de reflexión el viernes 19 de septiembre de 2025 a las 12:30 p.m. El sepelio tendrá lugar en el cementerio Holy Cross.
