Lynn was preceded in death by his wife, parents and two grandchildren, Chelsie Ann Davis and Chad McFerrin Davis; and a sister, Shirley Nechero.

He is survived by a daughter, Susan Davis of Lubbock; a son, Scott Davis and wife Debbie of Morse; a brother Bob E. Davis and wife Marilyn of Waco; a sister, Hazel Gallavan and husband Richard of Cortez, Colorado; one grandson, Donnie Davis and wife Kasandra, and his pride and joy a great granddaughter, Kaylee Lynn all of Borger.

Services will be held Thursday, October 9, 2014 at 11:00 AM at the First Baptist Church of Stinnett. Burial will follow at Lieb Cemetery.

Mr. Davis will lie in state at Brown’s Chapel in Stinnett on Tuesday, October 7 and Wednesday, October 8 from 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggest donations be made in honor of Lynn Davis to the Morse Community Building, PO Box 114, Morse Texas 79062.
