Tony Gene Davis

Tony Gene Davis passed away peacefully at the age of 81, at home in Hemet, California, on Thursday, November 21, 2019. He was born to the late Anson Oco Davis and the late Rena (Cobb) Davis, in Madris, Missouri, on Friday, September 16, 1938.

Tony is survived by his loving wife and best friend, Judy Davis, of 31 years of marriage; as well as his caring children, Mikki Davis, Cyndie Allen, Lisa Ratnapala, Kenny Workman, Chris Stewart, Laura Rosales, Andy Rosales, Regena Foster, Ginger Daley, and Reggie Foster; his 15 adoring grandchildren; and his 14 wonderful great-grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his parents, Anson and Rena Davis and his three children, Patrick Rosales, Kimberly and Sheldon Davis.

Tony was obsessed with airplanes and enjoyed life, spending family time, dancing, laughing, and in his younger days, scuba diving. He was a great entertainer and amazed everyone with his personality and his jokes. Tony enjoyed dancing to jazz with his beautiful wife. As a hobby he built airplanes and ships; Harbor Freight was his favorite store. The only item on his bucket list was to go to the Smithsonian Museum, which he and his wife accomplished, when they took a train ride from Los Angeles to Washington DC. One of Tony's nicknames was Grumpa. His family best describes him as loving, caring, and a kind soul, and “the best grandpa in the world.” He will be missed by all that knew and loved him.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Monday, November 25, 2019, from 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM, at the Ramona Room at the Miller-Jones Mortuary, located at 1501 W. Florida Ave, Hemet, CA 92543.
