Sarah Elizabeth Davis

June 20, 1932 - June 23, 2018

Sarah Elizabeth (Freeman) Davis, 86, of Kalkaska MI, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones at 1:55pm, Saturday, June 23rd, 2018, at her son’s home in South Boardman, MI. She was born to Daniel and Donnie (Butler) Freeman in Etowah County, Alabama, on June 20th, 1932. She is survived by her husband, James Arthur Davis, whom she married on June 30th, 1950. Also surviving are her children, James Davis of Kalkaska; Carol (Kenneth) Miller of Kalkaska; Robert (Jacqueline) Davis of South Boardman; 13 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren; her sister, Faye Kassuba; her brothers, Daryle (Ann) Freeman and John (Edna) Freeman. Her parents, and one grandson; Joshua James Davis, preceded her in death. Sarah was a longtime resident of Michigan, where she has lived since childhood. She graduated from Lake Orion High School in 1950, and worked in hospitals throughout most of her life. Among her many jobs, she worked for 13 years at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, and 23 years at Cadillac Mercy Hospital, where she retired at the age of 76. Sarah loved her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, above all else. She read her bible and prayed for her loved ones daily with her husband. She enjoyed trips to the Upper Peninsula where she loved picking blueberries with her husband, and watching the ships pass through the Soo Locks. Sarah loved fellowshipping with her loved ones. No gathering was complete without her fresh baked pies, as she was an amazing baker. All of her loved ones would attest that she never ended a phone call, card, letter, email, social media post or goodbye in person without her famous saying, “Enjoy your Blessings.” Sarah would always say that the most important relationship you will ever have is with Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Sarah was a blessing and we enjoyed her. She will be greatly missed. A Celebration of Life service will be held at 7:00pm on Thursday, June 28th, 2018 at Coldsprings Christian Fellowship, 532 S. Cedar St. Kalkaska, MI. Rev. Robert D. Davis and Pastor James D. Davis Jr. will be officiating. The children request that all memorial contributions be made to their father, James A. Davis. The arrangements were made by Wolfe-O'Neill Funeral Home, our family serving yours.
