Keitha...We will miss Davey and seeing him at your house on many family occasions.He was always so friendly and hugged us every time...We are so sorry and know he will be sorely missed by all friends and family.....Love you ...Jackie Jerry Pauline and Karen....
As I read the words my son Jeremy wrote, tears flowed down my face and memories like a running stream. I tried to catch a few of those memories as they slipped through my mind. I loved Davey as a son and we use to talk for hours. Then Davey changed phone numbers again and again and became very private in his last couple of years. I remember the strong embrace hugs when I would see him, as he loved hard and strong. He lived in NC for a while with me and my family. He worked in a business he was great at Behavioral Technician. He was a wonderful Mentor to many young men here in NC. I wished he had never went back to Alabama. His knowledge of the Lord was so vast. He helped guide my Son and Grandsons through the Lords words. He put the Bible in their hands and told them not to just read it but use as their guide of Life. They did and do. Thank you Davey for this and yes I told him so many times how he talked to Jeremy and shared the word at a very early age. Thank you Jesus. He was like a daddy figure although they were close In Age Davey was an Old Soul. Your job on Earth is Done. Good job I’m sure he heard this as he passed though those Pearly Gates. I’m sure he is driving them crazy telling All the Lord did for him and the people he prayed for had to be millions. He use to tell me “ I can’t rest Aunt Margie I have to pray for so many “. Yes he did and He is a great warrior still I know it. Nobody has to guess where his loyalty was Never. If you shared something with him He carried it with him and prayed it to the Good Lord. You knew all of this and every word from Jeremy Tammy and all your friends and family. We didn’t have to talk everyday. What was said or meant to be said was said by All. You made sure of that My Man. Only God knows. I loved you without question I will miss you without question You are in Gods arms without question. Rest easy in knowing Sister Mama (Christy) You Never Gave Up God Bless Love you too much
Until we meet again
Aunt Margie
I can’t even begin to put in words what Davey was and is and will always be to me. He was who I idolized , all I ever wanted to be like and I didn’t care what anybody else said or thought about it. He was a brother, a friend, my mentor, my guide, my teacher, my rock, my heart, my fist, my ear , my words and my voice I always hear as I have grown from a little boy into a grown man. He always told everyone,that I was his first son. I know everybody had a special kind of relationship with him, but I want to be a little greedy and say, nobody left on this earth had the bond that we had. I’m not trying to take away anything from anyone who loved him or knew him, my only intention is to try and open up a little bit and let some of this pain and love out of my broken heart. I really don’t have any words to speak to Davey at the moment, we said everything to each other that could ever be said to each other. Although this one is like the last wave that the shore will catch, or the last note at the end of a beautiful song, the sound of a train as it fades out in the distance or the last ray of light before the night grabs it and pulls it under its dark, I will go on through my days, no matter the number or length of the, being forever grateful that God loved me so much and that He knew what I needed more than any other would ever be able to fulfill or even imagine, and in His perfectness, He gave me Davey. There are a few who are still alive that know what I’m talking about and without a doubt, they would verify and swear by it, that I am still alive today and have the knowledge and strength to face tomorrow because of Davey. “I love you too much cod, you know how much I love you? Do ya? Too much…I love you too much… love Jerm
Well, I have loved him, his entire life and beyond. Davy is my nephew. I remember everything about him. From when he was born with that dark headful of hair and those beautiful brown eyes. I picked on him every chance I got. After I got married it seems him and Keith's spent as many weekends as allowed at our house. I loved scarring him. But it turned on me, as he got older he would come to my house and set up booby traps to scare me. I loved that he knew he could. He soon grew into a man and became a father and we both got busy with raising our families, but when we did see it other we would talk for hours. I guess one of my best days with Davy, was when we went and played golf. We laughed and of course he scared me in the golf cart. He brought me much comfort when my husband Phil died. I know his big heart and his love of Jesus and I know he will greet me with open arms. In case you don't know I'm still Davy's aunt Mott.
Well I guess I've known Davey since we were a little children you used to swim in his aunt's pool in Indian oaks there was a lot of us in that pole we had a blast Mott was my sister-in-law and she would do anything in the summer to take us and have fun and she took us there and I met Davie and we became good friends he was funny he was fine he knew how to make you feel good about yourself he loved my brother who passed away 22 years ago this year who is also found when you get to say goodbye to him either he also knew the Bible very well him and Davey would sit and talk about it. He said Michael taught him a lot about the Bible. That lets me know they are both rejoicing today have you had a name for me he said I was his angel because every time there was an accident he was in and I appeared I guess he got better I am no angel I just love the Lord very much and I love this family very much Davey loved his children and anytime he had an opportunity to talk about him he did he was proud he was proud of that grandbaby it was like it was his his life's being his reason for living. And another thing he loved his mother he loved her deeply nobody could say anything about his mother that's for sure or his aunt Linda or his name Mott had one sister they would do anything in the world for him and he would do anything for her if you could when she leaves me too he would let anybody stay with him he said when I asked why don't you let just anybody stay with you he said if people need a place to stay I feel like I can't let him stay out on the street if they need a place to stay I'm going to let him stay with me I feel like that's what I need to do he was good-hearted he was given he was loving and just because he's gone don't mean I can't say he had a mean streak he would say he got that from his granddaddy Freeman he said he was just like him he loved him and when he passed he said it took something from him I think when he passed it might have took something from the whole family baby had lunch with my mother but two weeks ago at Burger King and he said mobile Carolyn was so sweet to me she had lunch with me no matter what what he didn't know or should have known was that Mama Carolyn loved him no matter what because Mama Carolyn would have treated him like she would have wanted other people to treat her Michael or her Jeffrey or her Julie or her Sheri, that's just how his mama Carolyn was she left him no matter what I can't say anything else right now except for I know that he's rejoicing and I'm proud for that thank you Lord Jesus for saving our souls and coverness with your blood and forgiveness of our sins
Christy my memory was Way back ( so far y’all would know I’m old)~I remember climbing on the bus & that sweet Smile that he Had & always so Happy is what I remember the most about him when young. I’m saddened that as he grew up I didn’t get to know him as an Adult. I know I would have loved his sweet Spirit! Fly High Davy,no more Pain & Sorrow but reaping your Rewards as a Faithful Follower! Love & Prayers for the Family♥️🙏
Ms. Christy, I was in the same grade with Davey from elementary school on. He was a sweet guy, and friend to many. May God comfort you and may Davey rest in heaven!
Wow, lots of memories with Davey....we knew each other for ever....Mainly memories of telling stories and just hanging out having a good time like friends did....you'll be missed Bud....
I have many good memories with Davey. Most of them were goofing off. We would be driving around in his Monte Carlo and see a squirrel. He tells me to get out and get the squirrel so I do and he takes off in the car. Every time I get close to the door to open it he takes off again. I fall for this trick at least two more times. During PE it was me and Davey against five other people in basketball Court football. I was the quarterback and he was the receiver. Even with a broken arm Davey had we beat them every time. They were so mad. Many Goods times cutting grass together. Lots of playing basketball near his house. I'm glad I got to see him a couple of years ago. He was pretty much Fearless. Once we were at Weaver cave and there was this guy repelling off of the cave wall. Davey asked if he could do it and was repelling down the wall like a pro. He was always proud of his diving skills which was pretty much a backward flip into the pool. You'll be missed buddy.
This one hits hard, I will miss you Cousin, one of the fondest memories are of when I gotnout the army, me you, and the boys went to to water park near Birmingham, that was a great weekend, you will be missed.
