Born on January 10, 1964 in Hartford City, Indiana
Departed on September 14, 2021 in Melbourne, Florida
Husband, Father, Brother, Son, and Friend, Danny Davis, died on September 14th at Holmes Regional Medical Center surrounded by his wife (Cindy), daughter (Kristy), son (Josh), and his daughters boyfriend (David). As a Florida resident since 2013, Danny was born on January 10th, 1964 in Hartford City, Indiana. Danny was an example and great leader for many. “There truly isn’t another person in this world that has been the “walk to walk” with his life with Christ.” He was known as a rock for many people and had a solution to any problem that people faced and consulted him on.
Danny married his high school sweetheart and the love of his life 38 years ago, Cindy. He was survived by her, three daughters (Kristy, Kayleigh, and Macie), a son (Joshua), his mother (Wanda Dickey), brother (David), and sister (Deloris). Along with countless friends, co-workers, extended family, and people he’s touched throughout his life.
He will be remembered for his teasing jokes, his confidence, his powerful testimony, his unfailing work ethic, his generous smile, and his willingness to go above and beyond for any person in need. One could only hope to be as fortunate to have a father, brother, husband, son, or friend like Danny at some point in life. He always had the ability to comfort those around him with positivity and grace. He will be loved and missed forever after his tragic death, battling Covid for 8 weeks in the ICU.
Danny’s life will be celebrated, remembered, and cherished forever. Friends and family are invited to his memorial that’s being handled by Brownlie and Maxwell in Melbourne, Florida on September 18th between 3pm-5pm. Given the current environmental circumstances, the family of Danny would like people to know that while attendance is appreciated, they understand and want everyone to continue his amazing legacy in lieu of their absence.

Danny worked for Sentient Energy, the company I founded, for just one year. He was known as very knowledgeable, hard working, and great with both customers and co-workers. Our industry has lost a great advocate, technologist and colleague. RIP Danny; you will be missed.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Danny at Indiana Michigan Power for several years and I always had great respect for him as a person and his work ethics. He was a man of his word. He was so proud of his wife and family and spoke of you often. Danny reached out to me a year or two ago on LinkedIn asking how I was doing as I believe he heard I had retired. It was so nice to “talk” to him then. Danny will be missed by many. I pray for God’s comfort and peace for Danny’s family and friends as you lovingly remember him. 🙏

We will always remember Danny as the kind hearted man with a warm smile. He was easy to talk with and his passion for the Lord was pure. Cindy, when Danny would talk about you or look at you, his eyes would sparkle. Even after 30+ years. That alone is amazing. Kristy & Josh, Kayleigh & Macie , you were precious to Danny and he love you all unconditionally. This world needs More Danny’s but he was a one of a kind. Our hearts break for you all.

Dear Davis Family - My sincere condolences on the passing of Danny. I worked with Danny for years at both Siemens and OSI. His positive impact is hard to express not only on his colleagues, but on the utility industry he was passionate about helping. From his "can-do" attitude, to his smiles and jokes, to his teaching will be sorely missed. God bless and prayers for your family.
