Heaven has gained a great musician and gentlemen. The bluegrass music community has lost a great talent and a true gentlemen that always represented bluegrass music in the highest standard. We will miss him but will always enjoy his recorded music and hold his memory dear. We have his family and bluegrass fans in our prayers.   

Ricky and Susan Jones, Rustburg, VA, Bluegrass Music Fans of Mr. David Davis,

David was a sweet and gentle soul with a heart of gold. We loved him like he was a part of us.
Cindy, you will be in my prayers every day forever. I know for sure just how hard it will be for you to go on without him by your side.
If you ever need anything, please let me know. I will be there for you.
Always, with much love.  Nona Davis

Cindy, my heart has been breaking for you.  I was first friends with David's mom and dad.  I loved them right 
Off.  Then I met David.  I loved him right off too, I thought what such a well mannered boy.  He never changed, just the greatest
Person you could ever want to meet.  I told Coleman one day,  you and David made the perfect couple.  
I knew cows and hay just wasn't his cup of tea.  But
I knew you could take over that.  
 
Cindy, I know this is probably the hardest thing
You will ever have to go through.  Take hold of God's hand and never turn loose.   I love you, thinking of you, and praying for you.

David was a dear friend and I will miss his smiling face and great sense of humor. Prayers for you Cindy. Love you very much. 
Kari Wadsworth

My heart goes out to Mrs. Cindy and their family.  Mr David was a fine musician and a good man.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends over the next several weeks and months as they grieve and  work together to find a new normal.

Deek was like an Uncle to Lloyd. He learned so much about music and the band travels. Prayers for Cindy and the family.

My parents and I always looked forward to visiting with David whether it was out on the road or when David & The Warrior River Boys traveled north to Ohio. We especially enjoyed his appearances at the Bluegrass Opry Barn at Oakwood, OH. We lived so close that it was almost like they were playing in our living room. My mother always had a platter of fried chicken for them to enjoy on their way to the next show. When I would see David next, that would always be the first thing he would mention. David got to know my Dad and always dedicated and sang "The River Ran Black" for him. Dad had grown up in the coalfields of Virginia and in many ways that song paralleled his growing up years. For me personally, David was a great mentor. He was always up for a conversation and always had something positive to say about the music. Cindy, you already know how special David was as a human being. Thanks for sharing him with the rest of the music world. Those of us who got to know him on a one-on-one basis was surely blessed. He blessed many more people with the high-quality music that he leaves behind. RIP, David.

Rick Prater & The Midnight Travelers, send our deepest condolences. It was always a pleasure to cross paths with David. He always had time for good conversation and a kind smile. He left a positive mark on so many lives. We hope you find comfort knowing that.

David was always nice and a smile on his face every time I seen him He will truly be missed by everyone I work with At Shaddix Country Mall

David Davis, you left your mark on the music that you loved. But more importantly you left your mark on countless people who you came in contact with! Personally you help a young man change the way he lived life and for that I will be eternally grateful. Go rest high brother your work on earth is done !!!
