The Reverend Robert E. Davis Sr., age 65, of Wheelersburg, Ohio, passed away Wednesday, March 22, 2023, at the
SOMC Emergency Room. He was born June 22, 1957, a son of the late James
and Shelby (Speaks) Davis, and his adopted parents, Leonard and Darlene
Westberg of Junction City, KS.
He earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Theology from Texas Bible
College in Houston, TX. He loved preaching and his ministry touched
thousands of lives worldwide. He had a passion for missions and building
churches internationally, he was fearless in his preaching (even when
in extreme pain), and dedicated to the apostolic doctrine especially the
message of Acts 2:38. He was an avid reader, well known for his humor,
kindness, and generosity. He spent many hours teaching, counseling, and
praying for those that he had the privilege of pastoring. He was a
friend to the loner, the misunderstood, and the outcast.

son, Robert E. Davis Jr. and wife Katie of Wheelersburg; a daughter,
Ashley N. Davis of Wheelersburg; one brother Thomas Davis and wife Amy
of Hackett, AR; one sister Teri Mills and husband Paul of Dallas, TX;
