David Elwyn Davis

November, 11, 1055 - April 17, 2022

David was the third child of Elwyn (Sie) Hugh Davis and Eliza Jane (Ralph) Davis. There were three other children in the family.

David was born in Alma, but grew up and attended school in Breckenridge. He worked along with his father on the Elton McKenzie farm. He enjoyed hunting and old cars.

After high school, David joined the Military, serving overseas in the Army. On one of his return trips to the States, he met the love of his life, Susan Bennett. She became his life-long partner. The two lived in Iowa, Texas, and settled in Ithaca.

David was preceded in death by his parents Elwyn and Eliza Davis, grandmother Mable Davis, aunts, uncles, and even Cousins.

David is survived by his two brothers and sister, Bill and Wanda Davis, Phil and Chris Santana - both of Ithaca, and Sie Allen Davis of Florida. He is also survived by his life partner Susan Bennett.

A funeral service to remember and celebrate the life of our brother, Dave Davis, is scheduled for 1pm Tuesday, June 21st at the Ithaca Methodist Church with a brief graveside service following at North Star Cemetery.

I am so glad Sally Jessup Monroe was so kind to notify me of David’s passing. She, too, remembers the children attending Hetzman School. I have fond memories of David as a little boy. Condolences to his wife and family. Although the family is grieving I am glad to see updates of the Davis family. They were definitely extended family for us.
