In Memory of
Keevin Duane Davis
I grew up with Keevin’s mother Carolyn, who was an extended family member. Although I didn’t know Keevin personally, I believe:
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” Therefore, I suspect that:
Keevin was creative, clever, compassionate, funny, kind, considerate, resourceful, and loving. Like his mother his persona most likely had a positive impact on everyone around him. If you needed help, he would be the first to give you his last dollar and support without hesitation. He was loved by his family and liked by his friends, neighbors, classmates, and co-workers.
As Christians we believe that physical death is a doorway to a new beginning that is more wonderful than we can imagine. I solute Keevin for being one of God’s good and faithful servants.
