Mr. Bobby Davis Sr., was born March 14, 1950 in Anguilla, Mississippi to Pearlie Mae Davis and to the late Columbus Davis.

At an early age Bobby, known as "Son" and "Shep Davis" grew to learn about the goodness of the Lord, thereby confessing faith in Christ and uniting in fellowship with the Union Chapel M.B. Church Family in Anguilla, MS, under the leadership of Rev. C.D. Dixon. It is there he lived out his life serving faithfully as a member and an usher. Son has always been a hard worker, family oriented, humorous, and loving father. Son was employed with both Fields Farm for more than 10 years and Martin Farms for over 5 years until his health failed. In March 2014, Son relocated to Greenville, Mississippi at Legacy Manor Nursing Care and in September 2016, he relocated to Royse City, Texas at Royse City Medical Lodge.
