Rev. Allan P. Davis
NORTH CLARENDON, VT –
Allan Packer Davis, 95, formerly of Newton, NJ went home to be with his Lord, surrounded by his family at his home on Thursday, January 13th. He lived his life by faith and died by faith.
He was born July 6, 1926 in Montpelier, VT, the son of George E. & Emma (Packer) Davis.
He was a 1942 graduate of Towle High School in Newport, NH and a 1947 graduate of Providence Bible Institute in Providence, RI. He received his BA in Psychology at Upsala College in East Orange, NJ.
He was the former Pastor of the Calvary Baptist Church in Warwick, NY, the First Baptist Church in Georgetown, NY, and for 31 years at First Baptist Church in Newton, NJ.
He married Eleanor May Grover on June 17, 1950 in Holbrook, MA.
Allan enjoyed fishing, woodworking, and spending time with his family. In his youth he played the violin with his sisters in a musical ensemble and performed for various clubs and occasions. He enjoyed playing his trumpet in his High School band and in a gospel group in his college years.
He had the gift of encouragement, and spent many hours counseling hurting hearts. He had a wonderful sense of humor and was always ready with a joke or pun. His life goal was to share the message of the gospel with all who had ears to hear.
In his retirement years he faithfully attended the Village Baptist Church in Belmont, VT and served as a deacon and taught a Bible study class for many years. With a servant attitude, he was known to use a hammer, vacuum or chainsaw wherever they were needed. He went on several mission trips overseas, digging ditches, using carpentry skills on missionary homes, and preaching in evangelistic crusades.
He was predeceased by his wife, Eleanor M. (Grover) Davis who died on January 12, 2007, and by his sister, Dorothy Johnson.
Survivors include two daughters, Kathleen Johnson of Newark, DE, and Martha Dunn of Pineville, NC; two sons, the Rev. Glenn Davis of Mt. Holly, VT and Scott Davis of Chester Heights, PA; a sister, Carolyn Guevin of Wilbraham, MA; 12 grandchildren; 8 great-grandchildren; nieces and nephews.
