Pamela Davis

Pamela LaVette Davis was born on August 29, 1967 to Florine C. Davis-Wright, in Junction City, Kansas, the youngest of three, with older brothers Dwayne L. Davis and Jeffrey R. Davis. Pamela passed-away on October 17, 2020 in Denver Colorado.

Pamela went to school in Junction City Kansas and graduated in 1985 from Junction City Senior High School. Pamela was a bright, charismatic child that loved to dance, as she was in a dance group and was nicknamed “Cutie Pie”. She made lifelong friends there that she stayed in contact with after a move to Denver Colorado shortly after she graduated.

Pamela is survived by her mother, brothers and three of four children: Daniel L. Watkins (son), Breawna L. Davis (daughter), and Tylan R. Davis (son). Anthony R. Davis (son) preceded her in death in 2017. Pamela is also survived by a host of nephews, nieces, and cousins.

Pamela was deeply loved and will be forever loved by her family as well as her friend of many years Sarah Smith.

Pamela’s big eyes, dimples, and smile brightened every place she went; she was friendly and approachable to anyone and everyone. No one was a stranger-just a friend she hadn’t spoken to yet.

Pamela served as a board member for a short period of time at The Gathering Place that served women and children who were experiencing (as she had) poverty, drug & alcohol abuse, and a variety of other issues.

Pamela was a wonderful cook and known to make superb meals out of extremely limited resources and ingredients. She was known to make dinner plates for the homeless, others that were homebound, and of course, her mother. She was very artistic and very creative in-home decoration.  Pamela’s favorite scripture was, No weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).  Her second favorite was, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Philippians 4:13).

Romans 7:19-25 NIV

For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God’s law, but in my sinful nature a slave to the law of sin.
