Roy Lee Davis, age 81, of Shawnee, Oklahoma, passed away in his home surrounded by family on December 7, 2023, after battling prostate cancer and Parkinson’s. Roy was born on January 28, 1942, to Vernon and Nadine (Nutt) Davis in Pierce, Oklahoma.
Roy married Judie May Golden on April 8, 1987, in Shawnee, Oklahoma. Though they did not have any children together, they had six children between them.
After retiring in 2004, Roy spent his time gardening, hunting, fishing and attending every extra-curricular activity his grandchildren were involved with. Roy was always on the sidelines watching, cheering and boasting about which child was his grandchild. He was the friendliest person you would ever come in contact with. He never met a stranger. Being a grandfather was Roy’s greatest achievement in life.
Roy is survived by his wife of 36 years, Judie; children, Andrew Anderson, Angela (Anderson) Overland and husband Tom Overland, Anna (Anderson) Peck and husband David Peck, Lisa (Davis) Bly and husband Tony Bly, Michael Don Davis, Carrie Lynn Davis; grandchildren, Crystal (Sacks) Yates and husband Shanley Yates, Megan (Sacks) Sandlin and husband Shawn Sandlin, Amber (Sacks) Rushing and husband Anthony Rushing, Sarah Anderson, Ashley Anderson, Jonathan Overland, Elizabeth (Overland) Dorsette; Great-Grandchildren, Devin, Logan, Bryson, Austin, Forrest, Sebastian, December, Alaneah, Cooper, Sawyer, Layla, Theodore, Eva, Ashton, Evan, Collin, Bryson, Issac, Olympia, Prior; Great-Great Grandchildren, Baylor, Karsyn, Jentry, and Josie.
