Ronnie Davis Obituary

Published by Legacy on Oct. 30, 2025.
Ronnie passed away on 10/27/2025 at Maple Springs Wasilla, Alaska from a long struggle with COPD. Ronnie was born in Mt Clemens Michigan 1/5/1958 to Paul and Margy Davis. Ronnie lived in Michigan with his parents, older Brother Bobby and younger brother Mark. He was very close to his maternal Grandpa, Grandma and Uncle Allen Fox and loved riding their horse Silver.
As a young boy the family moved to Alaska in 1962 and later his only sister Cindy was born. Ronnie loved to build and work on go-carts, motorcycles, trucks, 4-wheelers, snowmachines, classic cars and vehicles of all kinds. He could fix almost anything with duct tape and wire. Ronnie first worked in construction in Alaska. He married young, he had 2 children, his son Matthew and daughter Brandy and claimed they were the most precious gifts of his life.
Ronnie worked as a Truck Driver in the state of Michigan, later returning to Alaska, living a very simple life in a cabin that his family helped him build in Willow. There he hauled all his water and cut his own wood for heat. When he needed meat, he jumped on his wheeler, went and shot some wild game and then shared it with others.
Ronnie had an appreciation for nature. He was a good listener; kids and dogs gravitated to him. I believe this was partly, what I called, his peter pan "never grow up" syndrome. Ronnie was a friend to many and would give the shirt off his back to those in need. Persistence in doing things his way did get him into trouble from time to time. He was learning to rely more on God and less on himself as we all should.
Ronnie was preceded in death by his parents Paul & Margy Davis, his brother Bobby Allen Davis and his nephew Bobby Gray Davis.
Ronnie is survived by his son Matthew Davis and his wife Ellie of California.
His daughter Brandy Davis and her children, Melissa, Ava and Fisher of Alaska.
His Nephew Casey Davis of Texas & Niece Aubrey Scholl of Arizona, both their spouses and children.
His brother Mark Davis, his wife Roxane & their Children Cristal, Cassandra and Daniel of Mexico.
His sister Cindy Rausa (whom he lovingly referred to as his conscience), her husband Mitch & their children Gary, Laura, Cory, Patrick, Jordan & Micah, their spouses and their children.
Ronnie, we miss you so much already!
