Henry Davis, Sr.

Henry Davis Sr. left the loving arms of his family and went into the presence of our heavenly father on November 1, 2018. Henry was 80 years old and resided in London Texas with his wife of 58 years Jo Davis.

Henry was a man of many talents and worked with his hands and his back most of his life. He retired from Kimble County Road and Bridge as a heavy equipment operator.

He was preceded in death by his father, Lee Davis; his mother, Viney (Hawkins) Davis; and by 7 siblings, Edgar Davis, William Davis, Ben Davis, Mablelee Cochran, Oflita Caraway, Margie Fletcher and twin sister, Etta Durham.

Henry leaves behind his loving wife, Jo Davis; and their four children and families, Darla Thompson and her husband Russell Thompson, Henry Davis Jr., Phyllis Davis, and Vernon Davis and his wife Reba Davis. Henry also leaves five grandchildren, Joshua Thompson and wife Rochelle Thompson, Jeffery Thompson and wife KD Thompson, Joseph Davis, Ashley Davis and Michael Davis; five great grandchildren that will miss their PaPa very much, Abbygail and Hailey Thompson, Keagan, Jayden and Rowan Thompson; two half siblings, Gary Davis and Sue Armstrong; as well as many other family and friends too numerous to name.

Henry was the assistant Fire Chief of London Volunteer Fire Department and gave many years of service before retiring in 2016.

By Henry's wishes the family will have a small private grave side service with no pomp and circumstance. He wanted it simple and short and the family will honor his wishes. If you would like to make a memorial donation please make it to London Volunteer Fire Department or a charity of your choosing in his name.

Our hearts are heavy but we rejoice in his abiding in the loving arms of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

Arrangements are under the direction and personal care of the professionals at Kimble Funeral Home. (325) 446-3076
