Richard James Davies, son of the late Claudia (Russell) and David Davies, entered into rest on February 11, 2020 at the age of 65. He was born on March 5, 1954 in Pontiac, Michigan and grew up in Ferndale, Michigan. He graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor's Degree in Accounting in 1976.
Richard and his wife Linda have been franchise owners of four 7-Eleven stores in Las Vegas for over 30 years. He enjoyed a variety of activities including weekly golf outings, refereeing youth soccer, years of bowling leagues, and avidly watching sports. Hockey was a huge part of his life, from pick up as a kid, to watching the Red Wings and the Golden Knights, to joining a senior men’s league; it was a lifelong passion.
He is survived by his wife Linda (Schmidt) Davies; children Leslie (Leighton) Jones, Courtney Davies, Marc Davies; grandchildren, Liliana Jones, Lydia Jones; siblings Cathy (Bob) Codney, Claudia (Ron) Fortson, David Davies, Donna Berkseth. Richard will also be remembered by his many aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, extended family, and close friends.
