Obituary for Jeanette Dorothy Davis

Jeanette Dorothy Davis, a beloved daughter, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend, peacefully left this world on July 1, 2025, at the age of 88. Born on October 13, 1936, in Cincinnati, Ohio, Jeanette spent her life devoted to her family and her community, leaving behind a legacy of love, compassion, and kindness.

Jeanette was the proud mother of Steve (Donna) Davis, Susan (Mike Farley) Davis, and Jeanie (Kevin) Bryant, who cherished her unwavering support and guidance throughout their lives. She was a guiding light not only to her children but also to her grandchildren: Lauren (Dan Sai) Davis, Jeffrey (Rachael Droll) Davis, Michael (Tonya) O’Malley, Alex (Sara) Bryant, and Aaron (Courtney) Bryant. Her heart swelled with pride as she embraced her great-grandchildren, Remy Davis, Winston Davis, and Trace O’Malley, with immeasurable joy.

Jeanette was preceded in death by her husband, G. Allen Davis Jr., and parents, Anthony and Georgeana Wenzel.

A homemaker by profession, Jeanette’s true calling was nurturing her family and community. She was an active member of Groesbeck Community Church, where she participated in the Morning Glory Women’s Bible Study group and played a crucial role in establishing the Son Ministries food bank. Her commitment to service extended beyond the church, as she also contributed her time and energy to the Northwest Women’s Club.

Jeanette found joy and connection in the simple pleasures of life, particularly enjoying afternoons spent playing bridge with friends, where laughter and camaraderie flourished.

Visitation will be held on Monday, July 7th, 2025 from 10:00-11:00am at Groesbeck Community Church, 8871 Colerain Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45251. A memorial service will take place at 11:00am. A luncheon will follow the service at 12:00pm at the church.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Groesbeck Community Church or Son Ministries.

Jeanette’s infectious smile and sense of humor, unwavering faith, generosity, and heartfelt kindness have left an indelible mark on the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing her. She will be dearly missed but will live on in the cherished memories of her family and friends.
