J.E. Davis, age 66, of Crossville, passed away peacefully at his home on Monday, November 13, 2023, after a long battle with cancer that spanned well over 2 decades. He fought harder than anyone could ever have imagined and was “tough as nails”. There are some who bring a light so bright into this world that even after they are gone that light remains and this is exactly what our husband, dad, and Poppy is doing now! Go rest high on that mountain and we will see you again!

Funeral services will be conducted on Friday, November 17, 2023, at noon at Crossville Memorial Funeral Home. Brother Thom Hassler will be officiating. The family will receive friends on Friday from 10 a.m. until noon. He will be laid to rest at the New Era Cemetery following the service.

J.E. is survived by his wife of 40 years: Lisa. D. Davis; sons: Jeremy Davis and Dalton Davis (Hannah); and granddaughter: Madison Davis who was his pride and joy. A very special friend in Christ: Boyd Brown who visited often giving him support and words of encouragement.  No words can ever express the thankfulness for such a great man as Mr. Boyd. Brothers: J.C., Tony, and Calvin Davis Jr. Calvin you will never know how much the visits and the car rides together meant to your brother. J.E. was preceded in death by his parents Calvin and Josephine Davis and brother Larry Davis.
