In addition to his parents, Mr. Davis was preceded in death by two sisters, Marsha Kay Davis and Myra Jean Davis, and two brothers, Michael T. Davis and Mitchell Davis.

Professionally Myron worked at Harbison-Walker in Vandalia.

Myron was a member of Second Missionary Baptist Church in Vandalia.

Myron was a faithful man of God whose life was grounded in spiritual strength, humility, and gratitude. His unwavering belief guided his every step, shaping the way he loved, served, and cherished those around him. He lived out his faith with kindness and a deep devotion to his family, especially his beloved grandchildren, who brought him immense joy. His presence at family gatherings will be deeply missed.

Alongside his devotion to faith and family, Myron had a lifelong passion for sports, cars, and motorcycles. Whether attending car shows, polishing his collection to a brilliant shine, or riding his motorcycle with care and precision, Myron approached all his hobbies with enthusiasm and attention to detail. A true enthusiast, he took pride in always dressing sharp and presenting himself with style at every outing.

Myron also had a sweet tooth that couldn’t be ignored—there was always room for dessert, no matter the occasion. His love for country and western shows, paired with his enjoyment of mowing the yard, reflected a life rich in simple pleasures and genuine joy.

Above all, Myron was known for his warm heart and his ability to make those around him feel loved and valued. He touched many lives with his kindness, his laughter, and his unwavering faith.

Pallbearers will be Jerry Davis, Maurice Davis, Gary Davis, Darrell Wiser, David Davis and William Wheeler Jr.

Honorary pallbearers will be William Wheeler Sr., Ronnie Green, Artie Wiser, Donnell Perkins, Wendell Wheeler and Larry Wheeler.
