Davis Olivia Collier

She was a junior at Castle High School and previously spent two years at Signature School. She golfed for both schools, was part of the Castle girls Lacrosse team, and a member of Castle’s Pep Club. Davis was also a member of Business Professionals of America, recently placing first in a local contest and preparing to compete at State. A child of God, she made her faith a strong priority with her involvement with the youth group at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church, Young Life and Bible Buddies Group. With a silly streak and an innate tenderness, her soft spot for children was easy to see, and they equally gravitated toward her. Her brilliant blond hair and sparkling blue eyes were sunshine in motion. She felt at ease baking in the kitchen and found joy making her friends laugh with quirky dance moves. Spending time with her family was a favorite pastime, and she was known for her innate ability to nap through anything. Her time on Earth was brief, but she will remain the provider of a lifetime of smiles to those who knew her.

Davis is survived by her parents, Keith and Leanne Collier; sister, Jaye Collier; brother, Cash Collier; grandmother, Patricia “Patty” Nirk; grandfather, Gary Kendall (Linda); grandfather, Pat Collier (Peggy); grandmother, Ruth Bruns (Al); uncles, Dale Kendall (Alison), Rod Kendall (LeAnne), Matt Collier (Shai Ann), Ben Gurtel (Erin); and cousins, Veronica and Sophia Kendall, Colton and McKenna Kendall, and Paige, Makenzie, Lane and Ellie Collier.
