Although I don't remember you physically(I was 8 months old)when you were killed), you have always been a hero to me. I have always missed you and wished you would have been here to see your grandkids in person. I know you are with God and have been watching over me my whole life. You are always in my heart and one day I will see you again in Heaven. I named my first born Son in honor of you Dad. Love you always, Carol.

My name is Debbie and my dad was Samuel Luther Davis. I would like to here from anyone that knew my dad.
