Larry Davis

Larry "Moe" Davis was born on June 5, 1951, in Finger, Tennessee, to the late Armor Eldon and Maggie Geneva Vires Davis. As the youngest of five siblings, he was truly loved and will be remembered fondly by those he leaves behind.
He was united in marriage to Patricia Elaine Sims on April 6, 1996. Pat passed away on September 17, 2023.
For many years, Larry dedicated himself to his work as a truck driver and a sheetrock finisher, contributing faithfully to his community. Beyond work, he found immense joy in the simple pleasures of life. He loved BBQing with friends, spending entire days cooking boston butts, chickens, and ribs.
He embraced nature with an open heart, whether he was fishing or tending to his garden, generously sharing fresh vegetables with family and friends. His membership at the Moose Lodge provided him with opportunities to cook for numerous benefits, reflecting his generous spirit and commitment to helping others.
A passionate farmer at heart, Larry enjoyed raking and baling hay, and driving tractors around the farm. He also enjoyed riding motorcycles. He took delight in exploring scenic, slow routes, appreciating the beauty of the world around him.
Known affectionately as "Moe" to his grandchildren and friends, Larry's kindness and humor will forever echo in their hearts.
