My heartfelt condolences to the entire family. I am sorry for your pain and I am praying for peace and comfort during this difficult time. I will always cherish the summers I spent with my family in NC. We can't lose the people we love, not even to death. They continue to influence our lives and their love leaves everlasting memories.

Carl was close to my family and ALWAYS there when we needed him! I remember when I went to the emergency room and I told him where I was and he came! I felt SO blessed and that Jehovah didn't neglect His scared sheep because I had no idea what was wrong with me and it was a serious illness. My love and sincere prayers are with the Davis family. His death is a loss for Trent River congregation and Jones County.

We send sympathy to the Davis family and especially his devoted wife Vera. We learned so much from Carl about our new community and home, Jones County. More than that he was an example of a spiritual man that effectively taught his children and additionally was an example in the congregation as an older man and elder. He was tireless in the Bible preaching and teaching work until his health prevented him. We miss him so much already. JOHN 11:25

Sonny & Yvette Johnston

To the Carl Davis, Sr Family...We are sending our condolences from Charlotte, NC and Stafford, VA. We are your first-cousin (deceased) Junior Frank's' children. May your precious memories of your beloved husband, dedicated father and grandfather never fade but remain forever in your heart. I pray soon a smile will replace your tears when you hear Carl's name. Carl is a descendant of two Civil War Union Soldiers - both his Great Grandfathers 1) Gaston Davis (captured became Prisoner of War) and 2) John Hill. Carl is standing tall. Your cousin Shrone Franks Wooten and Franklin Wooten, Stafford, VA.
