Milton Cornelious Davis, Sr., born on January 11, 1966, in Blountstown, Florida, transitioned peacefully on October 28, 2024. He was an adored son, brother, and father, leaving behind a heritage of hard work, dedication, and tenacity.
Milton was the first-born son of Queenie Mae Davis, who preceded him in death, and Henry Cornelious Davis, Sr.(Lavern). In addition to his mother, he was
preceded in death by two older sisters, Betty Ann Smith and Lillie Ann Felicia Davis; and a granddaughter, Promise Davis.
Milton was educated in the Manatee County School system but was self-taught in the mastery of mechanics,
electronics, and art. He was truly a hard worker, and despite the stern disposition, he had a caring heart.
He worked at AAA scrapyard for many years and embraced the owners as family as they did him.
Milton leaves to hold dear his memories: his sons, Milton Cornelious Davis, Jr., and Jerome C. Davis; daughters, Shanequa T. Davis and Milira Davis; one
very special grandson, Milton Cornelious Davis; sisters, Michelle Davis, Berzelious Davis, and Jeanetta C. Taylor (Lawrence); brothers, Henry Cornelious
Davis, Jr., and Carlos Davis; one aunt, Yvonne Jackson (Lee); three uncles, Isaiah Smith, Bruce Smith, and
Lester Smith; five nephews; seven nieces; and a host of cousins and associates.
