Martha Harden Davis

Martha and Sloe enjoyed a life living all over the world for 40 years. Martha literally dined with Kings and Queens, Presidents and too many Heads of States to count. While overseas, Martha enjoyed being a loving mother as well as wife. In their different assignments around the world, she started thrift stores so other foreign service agents could donate clothing to help local citizens. She was instrumental starting a hospital, worked in orphanages and left the places better than she found them. She became an artist and a dang good golfer. In the 1980s she and Sloe moved back to Pickens to retire.

Martha was a member of Grace United Methodist Church.

Mrs. Davis is survived by a son: Greg Davis (Wanda) of Easley; a daughter: Kip Nations of Pickens; two grandchildren: Amber Davis (Heather) of Easley and Andrew Nations (Adair) of Pickens; two great-grandchildren: Cooper and Alex Nations of Pickens; and a daughter-in-law: Jeannie L. Davis of Atlanta.

In addition to her loving husband and her parents, Martha was preceded in death by a son: Barry Davis.

Graveside services will be conducted at 2:00 PM on Sunday, August 6th at Hillcrest Memorial Park in Pickens.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations be made to either Grace United Methodist Church: 309 E Cedar Rock St, Pickens, SC 29671; or to the Callie and John Rainey Hospice House: 1835 Rogers Road, Anderson, SC 29621.
