Patsy Jo Young Davis

May 28, 1947 — October 7, 2025

Patsy Jo Young Davis, a cherished wife, mother, grandmother, and sister, passed away peacefully on October 7, 2025, in Corinth, Mississippi, at the age of 78. Born on May 28, 1947, in Dyer, Tennessee, Patsy's life was centered around the enduring love of her family and the comfort of simple joys.

Patsy was the beloved widow of Jerry Harrison Davis, with whom she shared 51 wonderful years of marriage before his passing on January 16, 2023. They exchanged vows on July 3, 1971.

A woman who found contentment in the everyday, Patsy loved getting lost in a good book, spending hours talking on the phone with loved ones, and connecting with friends and family while scrolling on Facebook. She held a special place in her heart for her canine companions, Mollie and especially her cherished dog, Bree.

Her memory lives on through her three devoted daughters:

  • Beverly Renfro of Adamsville, TN
  • Regina Carol Cheaves and her husband Gerald of Selmer, TN
  • Jenifer Kay Copeland and her husband Eddie of Adamsville, TN

She is also survived by her brothers, Larry Young and Gene Young.

Patsy was a loving "Granny" to a host of grandchildren: Candace Steely, Keith Wilkerson, Jennifer Parker, Douglas Renfro, Jenny Kawano, and Nicholas Drumright. She also leaves behind numerous great-grandchildren: Everette Kawano, Dovie Kawano, Callie, Crew, Hunter, Logan McKenzie, McKayla, Hannah, Antonio, Summer, and C.J.; and one great-great-grandchild, Oakleigh.

Patsy was preceded in death by her loving parents, Robert Joe Mitchell Young and Beatrice Taylor Young. She was also preceded in death by her two sons, Jerry Harrison Davis Jr. and David Renfro; her grandchild, Kayce Renee Renfro; and her great-grandchild, Traci Lynn Steely.
