Obituary published on Legacy.com by A Natural State Funeral Service & Crematory on Sep. 23, 2025.
Ricky Davidson passed away peacefully on September 18, 2025 at UAMS Hospital, after battling cancer for a year. He lived his whole life in Little Rock, where he met his wife, Brenda, when she was 15 years old. They became friends and married August 7, 1981. They had recently celebrated their 44 th anniversary.

Ricky is survived by his wife Brenda, his sister Beverly Ann Lester, and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and many longtime friends.

Ricky is preceded in death by his parents, William and Justine Davidson, his older brother, James Davidson, and stepson, Joshua Loy.

Ricky worked as an auto mechanic most of his life and would never hesitate to help others with his knowledge of vehicles. He loved going on trail rides with their horses, fishing, and wheeler riding. His greatest passion was riding his Harley with Brenda on the back.

Ricky, you were loved and will be missed by many, especially by your lifelong friend and wife, Brenda. She will always hold you close in her heart.

A memorial service will be held Saturday, September 27 at 11:00am at Edgewood Cemetery, 4200 Division St, North Little Rock, AR 72118
