Ricky Wayne Davis

Ricky Wayne Davis, born May 26th, 1962, in Inglewood CA, passed away in his sleep, on December 12th, 2024, at his home in Los Osos, age 62. Rick grew up in Lawndale, CA, son of Marion Mariano, and Harold Leroy "Roy" Davis. He grew up on a street with aunt, uncle and cousins next door, and grandparents in the the next house. At 16 drove a delivery truck for his grandpa Frankie Mariano who owned Mariano produce at downtown Los Angeles Wholesale Produce Market. Rick could back up the trucks so well, Grandpa would often make grown men get out of their trucks, and have Rick do it for them. He enjoyed surfing, waterskiing, and snow skiing, and was on the HS football team. Rick graduated from Lawndale High School in 1980. Rick met his wife, Yvonne (Thomas) Davis, at Bass Lake, CA, where each of their families vacationed. They married on January 18th, 1986, at Madonna Inn. After 2 years of living in Southern California they moved back to Yvonne's hometown of Morro Bay. Together they raised three wonderful sons, who all have families of their own now. Son Wesley, and Ashlea, with Lorelai, Zoey, and Dax. Son Lorney, and Kaylee, with Seth and Tahoma. Son Cody, and Nancy with Jaxon, and twins Maryn and Raya. Rick loved them all with all his heart.
Rick was a general contractor, and opened Davis Doors in 1989, later adding Davis and Sons Construction.
Rick enjoyed traveling by motorhome, spending time at the family cabin near Bass Lake, off-roading, boating, including a few years of drag boat racing. He was a jack of all trades.
The family is grateful that Rick was able to attend all three of his sons weddings and loved his daughter-in-laws, and got to have a special relationship with each of his eight grandchildren. Celebration of Life will be held at the South Bay Community Center in Los Osos, CA on January 25th, 1 pm to 5 pm.
