Whereas, he will be remembered as a wise, dear friend, captivating storyteller, wonderful boss, and loving father and husband; and
Whereas, the General Assembly extends its sympathy to the family and friends of Dr. Thomas Marion Davis. He is survived by his wife, Pauline Adele Davis; three daughters, Marie Davis Buyck of St. Matthews and Harriet Davis Rawlinson and Caroline Davis Herring of Manning; a son, Thomas Marion “Bubba” Davis, Jr., of Manning; two brothers, George Bellinger Davis, Jr., of Lexington and Dr. William McAlhany Davis of Spartanburg; a sister, Margaret Davis Rogers of Columbia; and seven grandchildren.
