Born on May 26, 1954, Mary Ellen was the embodiment of empathy, charity and self-sacrificial love. As a woman of faith, her life was molded by a deep relationship with God built through daily scripture study and prayer for those she loved. As a nurse anesthetist, she guided thousands of patients through sickness and pain, and treated each one with the rarest kindness and grace. As a daughter, she ferociously loved her parents, siblings, cousins, nieces and nephews. As a wife, she lived out her commitment to love and cherish her husband through whatever darkness the world threw at them. And as a mother, simply put, she would have laid down her life for her son.
Mary Ellen was predeceased by her parents, Rebecca “Becky” Corley Miller and Richard “Stretch” Miller, Sr. and nephew, Matthew Corley Miller. She is survived by her beloved husband, Olin Davis and son, Will Davis; her siblings, Cathy (Mike), Dicky (Sue), Ginger, Amy (Christie) and many nieces and nephews.
While those who knew her are mourning for now, they wait and hope for the day when they will see her again.
Services will be held on Monday, June 21, 2021 at 1:00 pm at Caughman-Harman Funeral Home, 503 North Lake Drive, Lexington, SC 29072.
Her family requests that anyone who wishes to honor her memory donate to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital at www.stjude.org/donate.
