ARTHUR DANNY DAVIS

NORTON, VA - Arthur Danny Davis, 79, went to be with The LORD on Monday, January 1, 2018, after a battle with pancreatic cancer. A.D., as he was known by his family and friends, was a celebrated baseball player. He enjoyed the sport so much that he continued to play men’s softball with his son when he was in his late 50’s. A.D. also loved gardening. He taught many people how to produce a thriving vegetable garden. His delicious vegetables have been enjoyed from Richmond, VA to Wise County.

A.D. worked for the City of Richmond, VA for twelve years. He returned to Norton, VA and retired from Westmoreland Coal Company in 1995. He enjoyed hard work so much that he continued helping others with their landscaping and yard work until he was 77 years of age.

A.D. was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather. He always had a smile on his face and plenty of time to play with his grandchildren. He will truly be missed by all.

A.D. was preceded in death by his parents, Arthur and Ettie Davis; an infant daughter, Regina Gail Davis; brothers, Rob Davis and Carl Davis; sisters, Edith Niece and Hazel Davis.

A.D. is survived by his wife of 59 years, Judith Davis; two children, Tammy Carty and her husband Jeff, Danny Davis and his wife Monica; five grandchildren, Emily Stidham, Sarina Collins, Derick Davis, Isabella Davis, and Dylan Davis; three great grandchildren, Taylor Gardner, Madison Gardner, and Gavin Collins; several nieces and nephews.

The family will receive friends from 5-7 pm Wednesday, Jan. 3, 2018, at Hagy & Fawbush Funeral Home in Norton. Funeral services will be conducted at 7 pm in the funeral home chapel with Rev.
