Tbone and I send our deepest and heartfelt condolences to the entire Davis family. After 48 years of friendship it’s hard to share just one memory. I would like to share a life lesson that Mike taught me. Think possible, find the positive in others and then sing ever song and dance every dance, even in the rain. This I will take with me till my last breath along with his memory .

Mike you were one of the kindest people I’ve ever had the privilege of being friends with. The memories of you Bennie and I will always treasure. From our fifteen minute boat rides, to playing 31 on the dock with all our friends and family, late night casino trips, washing the dock in the middle of the night to don’t cut the toast. Karen our hearts bleed for you. We love and miss you Mike Davis!! Bennie and Judy Magee

We have so many happy memories of adventures on the Neches River with Mike. Everything from tents carpeting the sandbar to floating ant beds after a flood to anchoring six or seven boats in Sabine Lake to fifteen minute boat rides. Rest in peace, Mike Davis. You lived large.
