Maudie Davis

Waynesville, Maudie B. Davis, age 92, passed away on Wednesday, July 18, 2018 at Silver Bluff Nursing Home.

A native of Haywood County, she was the daughter of the late William Edward and Martha Snyder Buchanan. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Jack Madison Davis, who died in 1991, two brothers, William E. Buchanan (Bud), Mack James Buchanan (Peb) and three sisters, Letha Wyatt, Ruby Bumgarner and Joyce Fortner.

Maudie was a devoted housewife and mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She grew up during the depression which contributed to her strength and values.
