Joann Davis

Joann was saved August 13, 1973 and remained a faithful, devoted Christian throughout her life. She was a proud member of New Bethel Tabernacle. Joann had a deep love for gardening and took great joy in her flowers. She was also a wonderful cook who cherished preparing meals for her family. Above all, she loved her family dearly. She found her greatest joy in being a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother—affectionately known as “Granny Granny”—and great-great-grandmother. Joann will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

She was preceded in death by her husband, J.C. Davis; her parents, Fred and Georgia Chittum; sisters, Claudia Bryant and Helen Winkler; and brothers, John Chittum and Lester Chittum.

Joann is survived by her children, Jerry (Sherry) Davis, Pam (Travis) Mozert, and Vicki (Johnny) Parker; grandchildren, Erin Lester, Haley (Lance) Petty, Angie Rosenbalm, Deven Mozert, LeeAnn Parker, and John (Aimee) Parker; great-grandchildren, Thomas (Kaylee) Lester, Isaac Lester, Colton Lester, Kason Petty, Brice Petty, Hunter (Catie) Rosenbalm, Autumn Rosenbalm, Brady Rosenbalm, and Baylor Anne Parker; and great-great-grandchild, MacieAnne Davis Lester. She is also survived by her sisters, Peggy McBee, Gladys Keck, and Sarah Watson; her brother, Bob Chittum; her brother-in-law, Alva Davis along with a host of nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.
