I'm sorry to hear about Mrs. Davis' passing. I had the wonderful opportunity to know her as her Beautician at the Wesleyan at Scenic. She was funny and sweet and had the best sense of humor. I would peek around the corner and try to sneak up on her but she would say "BOO!" before I could get there and we would just laugh. God is smiling to have someone so special in heaven with him. I will miss her greatly. God bless her family who I know she cherished with all of her heart. God bless you all.
