One thought on “Lovette Earl Davis – April 1, 2015

  1. My mother Elaine Schmitt Brady lived across Spruce Ave from the Davis family. She has fond memories of both family’s children yelling across the street to each other, often to the chagrin of other neighbors. A picture of she and Lovette was featured on an RG&E poster that was taken by his father. She has one that we framed.

    Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
