Edward Davis Obituary

Edward J. Davis

Edward J. Davis, 74, of Findlay, died Wednesday, November 5, 2025, at Blanchard Valley Hospital, Findlay. He was born December 20, 1950, in Cleveland, to the late Jack J. and Delores K. (Pesta) Davis. He married Susan Elaine Conine, August 3, 1974, and she survives.

Eddie is also survived by his son, Shannon Edward Davis of Michigan; daughter, Amber Susan Davis of Findlay; grandchildren, Austin Caleb Davis, Brianna Danielle Decker, Lillian Sweetwater Davis, Clayton Lee Albert, Brayleigh Angel Noward; three great-grandchildren from Brianna, Amari Ritter, Daxton Williams, Mathias Davis; and a brother, Richard (Suzanne) Davis of Elizabethtown, Kentucky.

He was also preceded in death by his brothers, Kenneth J. Davis and Jackie J. Davis.

Eddie was an avid Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Indians, and Ohio State fan. He was most passionate about taking care of and providing for his family, which he did without fail up until his very last breath. He knew no strangers and would give anyone the shirt off his back without question. He was the most selfless, giving, caring, non-judgmental person anyone could have the pleasure of knowing. He enjoyed spending time with his family, close friends, reading, fishing, and listening to his music. He had a gift for making people smile and laugh, even in the most difficult of times. He loved God, his family, his country, taking his "girl" GiGi for walks and the big city of Cleveland, Ohio.

He held his wife/soulmate of 51 years (Rella), his children, and his grandchildren closest to his heart. He was an amazing husband, father, friend, and grandfather; and an even more remarkable father figure for his grandchildren, Clayton and Brayleigh. He was proud to have served his country in the Navy as a Seabee for four years. He retired from Cooper Tire as a boil operator engineer after 30 years, during which he put in endless hours and made many great lifelong friends.
