Fred Edward "Eddie" Davis, 67, of Mt. Pleasant, TN, passed away on May 24, due to complications from a stroke.

Fred was born June 12, 1957 in Columbia, TN, to Fred "Spike" Davis and Hazel Turner Davis.

At 18, Fred married Tammy Adams and had one daughter, Angela, in 1976. Later he married Darlene Hendrix and they also had one daughter, Jennifer, in 1982. Fred spent most of his youth playing men's travel softball. He was a pitcher for Costal Coin & other teams for 20+ years and made many lifetime friends.

Fred worked several professions over the years. A few to note were Columbia Plastics, Special Touch, and freelance carpentry until his first stroke forced retirement in 2000.

Fred enjoyed the Washington Redskins (in spite of their record), watching black & white shows/movies, collecting knives and watches. He was a master of corny dad jokes and useless trivia facts. But he especially loved when his family visited with the little ones.

Remaining to cherish Fred's memory are his girls, Angela Davis and Jennifer Davis. Son-in-law, Ron Hickman. Grandchildren, Robert Bell, Mallorie Bell, Nathan Morales; Great-grandchildren, Conor, Peyton, Palmer. And his special Nieces, Sherry (Wendell) Allman, Mary Ann Thomason, Nikki Davis, and Nephew, Tyler Ferrell.

Preceding Fred in death are his parents, Fred and Hazel Davis; and his siblings, Joan Sweeney and John "Steve" Davis.

The family will receive friends on Wednesday, June 4, from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM at Williams Funeral Home in Mount Pleasant, Tennessee.

Donations in Fred's memory may be directed to William's Funeral Home to assist with his arrangements.
