He lived most of his life in the Stoutland and Lebanon area, and attended Lebanon Schools. He worked as a boat loader (forklift operator) for various companies through the years, including, Tracker, Landau, Voyager Boats, and Bear Trailer Company. He was a hard worker, a little hard headed, and loved his morning coffee. He also had a delightful sense of humor. He was a big fan of the Kansas City Chiefs and liked watching wrestling and Super Heroes. He enjoyed playing card games and horse shoes. He liked going to the river and being with family and friends. When he couldn’t be outside, he liked watching westerns. He loved animals of all kinds. Keith made his profession of faith in Christ and was baptized early in his life. He had been a member of High Point Baptist Church. He especially enjoyed having time with his children and grandchildren and loved his family dearly. Keith was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and was a caring friend. We celebrate his life and know that his family and friends will hold tight to the wonderful memories he shared with them during his lifetime. Services for Keith Davis will be Thursday, March 17 at 6 p.m. at Holman-Howe Funeral Home in Lebanon. Visitation will follow the service. A memorial to Paws and Claws has been established and donations may be made through the funeral home.
