I was a kindergarten student of Mrs.Davis in the 70s and I recall her very fondly she cared about her students and we all loved her. God Bless and Prayers for the family.
Griffin,and children, I was asddened to jusr read that you had lost Willeene on the 7th of this month..I normally check a few times each week, but guess I missed reading the obits...Willeene was a talented person, and had a sweet personality, and will be missed by all. As I drive down Rich Rd, I sometimes look to see if I can see you or Willeene outside, as I didn't know you had moved to Florida..Griffin, I am the NELL Cash Grisham that ran the Imperial Grocery Store for 8 years, and remember you servicing the store, and also Willeene kept my youngest daughter some 40 years ago when we all lived on the East End of town...May God ease the burden of loss and just remember we can meet her again one happy day..God bless the whole family..Love you all..
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Mrs. Davis was such a good friend to my mother, Elaine Palmer for many years. May God bless all of you
