Bob was born in Mason City, Iowa, on August 31, 1932. He was the son of George Thomas Davis & Mildred Eibey of Clear Lake, Iowa. He graduated from Plymouth, Iowa in 1950. In 1952, it seemed like a little blonde gal from Grafton, Iowa, #40, seemed to be quite a basketball star, at least at his eyesight. On February 14, 1954, he married Doris Schultz. The couple made their first home in the Carpenter/Northwood area, on a farm. In their union, four children were born to them: Douglas, Donald, Doreen, and Darla Bob was active in farming community, taking up various jobs dealing with CFS, Morton Buildings, &Nashua Equity. In Bob's spare time, he enjoyed family, grandkids, and time spent with his coffee buddies. Bob loved fishing, old tractors, & farming. He loved the outdoors, and loved hosting camping parties out to the farm for his family. That special tour of the garden was always a highlight. After retiring from farming, he also spent a lot of time tinkering in his shop making & creating things, sometimes a lot of gag gifts. Always a sense of humor with Bob-or B.S. stories. Bob had a lot of sayings that seemed to make charts of famous quotes. Such as "Real Good Beans Don" no matter who made the other food. "Oh, Yeah... I'll be Darned" when he didn't know what to say & "So on and So forth". It didn't have to be a hot summer day for him to have a "cold one" ready for visitors. He spent his last few years living at Cedar Vale Assisted Living. Which all enjoyed his company, his stories, and humor. A much appreciated word out to the staff there for the care he received. He is a member of St. John Lutheran Church in Nashua. He is survived by two sons, Douglas (Cindy) Davis of Floyd, Iowa, Donald Davis of Ionia, Iowa; two daughters, Doreen (Kraig) Baldwin of Tripoli, Iowa, Darla (Jeff) Beckner of Waverly, Iowa; three grandsons, Jason (Amanda) Davis, Eric (Blair) Davis, Phillip Baldwin; two granddaughters, Melissa (Chad) Stambaugh, Megan Baldwin; great-granddaughters, Haylie & Anna Stambaugh, Harper Baldwin; two great-grandsons Hudson Davis & Ethan Briggs; brother-in-law Dale Schultz of Northwood, Iowa; nephew Jim (Joanne) Davis of Hillsboro, Oregon.
