Brendan Davis Obituary

Davis, Brendan James

Brendan passed from this life on November 23, surrounded by those he loved most including his parents, Jack and Kathleen (Geraty) Davis, sister Kaitlin, brother Justin, sister-in-law Abby (Morris) Davis, and Lexis Warner, his fiancee and forever love. He was deeply loved by his grandparents, Helene Davis and James P. Davis and the late Ann and Jim Geraty, by his aunts and uncles, his large crew of cousins and his countless friends. Their support and love were a huge source of joy and strength for him.

Brendan graduated from CBC High School in 2008 and Mizzou in 2012. With his open heart, amazing smile and ever-present sense of humor, Brendan created lifelong friends wherever he went. Brendan loved traveling, music, being in nature, and any time spent with his "ride or die pup" Chicharito. His time with Lexi was far too short but filled with love, laughter and a happiness that only true love can bring.

Brendan and his family are thankful for the amazing team of medical professionals at Siteman Cancer Center and Memorial Sloan Kettering who fought for him and walked beside him through his four-year cancer journey. He faced cancer with courage, strength and a positivity that was humbling to watch. He lived his life with love and hope.

Brendan´s smile sure could light up a room. He will always be a cancer hero to me. It was easy to care for him as he was always so polite, caring and full of charm. Gone to soon but will never be forgotten. He touched many in a positive manner. My heart breaks for this loss and my sincere condolences to his family, fiancé and all that knew and loved him. He sure was special

We knew Brendan through our daughter, Blair, who was a Pi Phi next door neighbor to the Phi Kaps at Mizzou. The girls (and their Moms) became fast friends with Brendan and his friends. Pi Phi Moms Weekends always included a Phi Kap dance party with Brendan as DJ. Our hearts are broken at this tragic loss and we are so very sorry. Please know he touched a lot of lives.
