FITHIAN —
Robert V. Davis, 76, of Fithian, passed away at 10:07 a.m. Jan. 31, 2013, at his home.
He was born on Feb. 22, 1936, in Fithian, the son of Isaac and Edith (Henning) Davis.
Surviving him are one sister, Kay Mitchell of Danville; nieces, Debbie (Ron) Wernigk of Henning, Lori (Bob) King of Cissna Park, Robyn (Scott) Maxey of South Carolina and Tina (Lance) Deck of Rossville; one nephew, Dean (Lynn) Boys of Jamesburg; one special aunt, Dorothy Moore of Fithian; and one special cousin, Dale Ward of Fithian.
