Today our walk was dedicated in honor of:
Navy Veteran Robert Vergil Davis, Age 85 of Sparta, TN.
Died Oct. 19, 2017
Mr. Davis was born Nov. 8, 1931, in the Big Bottom Community of White County.
He worked on every aspect of construction and was a “Jack of All Trades.” R.V. was an antique car enthusiast, traveling to car shows all over the country. His true passion and dedication was to the U.S. Navy, as he proudly served on the Destroyer DD754 Frank E. Evans.
He is buried in the Frasier’s Chapel Cemetery
It was a great honor to walk 6.08 miles with Navy Veteran Robert Vergil Davis, We walked by Holiday Hills Lake and then we made a stop at the CCHS to see the Navy Blue Angels Jet. We then walked up town and stopped in at the Veterans Memorial Park where we read some names of our Fallen Brothers on the Memorial Wall. We then headed back towards the house. We had a great walk. I want to thank everyone who honked, waved, and saluted in helping us honor this hero today. We had 357 honks. It was amazing. I also want to thank SGT James L. Wilson Jr for helping us honor this hero today.
Navy Veteran Robert Vergil Davis will not be forgotten !
