Judy A Davis
February 25, 1939 – July 10, 2018
Judy passed away with her husband and children by her side after a long battle with breast cancer. Judy was born to William Krogel and June Fohlin in Wichita, Kan. She was the oldest of four children. Judy met the love of her life, Samuel J. (Joe) Davis, in high school and they were wed on Sept. 3, 1955. Their first home was in Moses Lake, Wash. Their children soon followed: Deb, Carol, Cheryl, Joe and Michael.
In the ’60s Judy attended BBCC where she obtained her nursing degree as LPN in 1965. She had jobs as a nurse with summer migrant programs and Samaritan Hospital. After she moved to the Royal City area in 1970, she was a packer and supervisor for Royal Fruits Co. She was a loving mother to all her children. Judy spent her years with family camping, square dancing with the Columbia Skippers, serving as a past board member of the Old Hotel, making handmade crafts in the Cozy Corner, Sage, near George, Wash., bowling in tournaments and sewing.
Her hobbies were reading, painting, woodworking, upholstery, gardening with her roses, playing cards, traveling when she got a chance, camping, photography and having fun with her many friends. One thing for certain is that Judy had a fun-filled life in spite of a childhood with many trials. Judy was the type of person who loved many. She will be truly missed. She loved to travel with her favorite places being Fishhook Campground, England, Germany, Poland and Sweden.
Judy is survived by her husband of 63 years S. Joe Davis; children Deb and Bob Murphy, Carol and Bryan Cosper, Cheryl Davis, Michael and Denise Davis and Joe Davis; 13 grandchildren and 13 1/2 great-grandchildren; one sister Jan and Bob Fenton and one brother Michael and Caroline Scull. Judy was preceded in death by an infant son James, one sister and one brother.
We would like to thank the staff at Assured Home Health and Hospice for taking good care of Mom.
There will be no funeral services but there will be a memorial at the home of Joe and Judy on Aug. 11 at noon. Lunch will be served. You will be forever in our hearts, your loving family.
