Obituary For Thomas Lee Davis
I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun; Of happy memories that I leave when life is done.

To the Davis family, I'm sending heartfelt condolence on the passing of Pete. I met him and Nate in the Maryland area through my sister who he had done reconstruction work for. He also helped me with a reconstruction project at my home. I will always remember and appreciate his kindness and God given talents. I'm so sorry for your loss. May he rest in Peace and Power.
We send our deepest sympathy to the family. We have shared some good laughs sitting under Clyde's shade. Then I would call him and we would just talk n laugh. I will truly miss Mr. Pete. May God forever comfort the family at this sad time. Sam & Jen Brame
