Frederick Luther "Fred" Davis, age 77 of Greensboro, NC, passed away on Friday, September 6, 2024.
A native of Murphy, Fred lived here until the late 1990's. He was the son of William Merle Davis and Martha Butner Davis, both deceased.
Fred was the owner/manager of Davis Jewelers and Fred's House of Trophies. He left Murphy in the late 1990's to attend Asbury Theological Seminary and became a United Methodist Minister serving multiple rural churches in Kentucky.
Fred loved the outdoors, especially hunting and fishing. He was generous and funny, wringing every possible ounce of fun out of life. He loved all kinds of card games and would definitely leave you with the queen of spades.
He is survived by his wife, Patsy Thompson Davis; a son, William Boyd "Bill" Davis; a daughter in law, Dawn Robertson Davis; a son, Lee Jefferson "Jeff" Davis; a daughter in law, Anne-Marie Jefferson Davis; a grandson, Raine Liam Davis; a daughter, Jaclyn Olivia Davis; a grandson, Seth Luther Lawrence; and a sister, Ellen Davis West and family.
A visitation will be held on Sunday, September 15, 2024 at 1:30pm. It will be followed immediately by a Celebration of Life at 2:30pm, both at Little Brasstown Baptist Church.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to Little Brasstown Baptist Church.
