To My Father: Roy Ray Davis born October 29, 1929; Died January 28, 2008 - Korean War Veteran
My Dad was one of the most caring individuals anyone could ever meet. I can't begin to express the love that I have for him and how special he was to me while on this earth. My Dad loved everyone and never had a bad thing to say about anyone. He loved me and my singing and my only wish is that he could be here to see this.
Love you Dad! Your Daughter,Tammie
