Davala was such a joy to work with and she loves her coffee.
Rest in peace, Davala. So many memories, with you. Riding with you, while you drove a go-cart. Taking on the wave pool, at Knights Action Park. All I had to say was, “trust me” and you were game for it. So many jokes about your lack of vision and my lack of hearing. Lots of fun times, but I, also, remember our talks about God and praying with each other. Being out and about, asking you “what do you see”. You would try to describe it to me. I know in your heart you love Jesus. I know your soul is with Him. So, open your eyes, Davala, and what do you see now? Streets of gold and amazing colors. Fly high, Davala.
Lynette and family,
Condolences on the loss of your sweet sister. I remember her from the neighborhood. She was blessed with such a loving family.
It was a joy working with Davala at Transitions. Shared a lot of laughs.
Condolences go out to Renee and all of the family. Rest Easy Davala! Probably up there havin a beer of which she often spoke of!
Davala Mayfield Family:
Very sorry for your loss.
Eternal Rest Davala
