Timothy James Davis, the son of Myron and Loretta Smith Davis, was born June 29, 1963 in Spencer, Iowa. His childhood years were spent in Spencer, where he attended North and Johnson grade schools and later Spencer Middle School. He later graduated from Spencer High School. While in Spencer, he was a member of the First English Lutheran Church in Spencer. After graduation from high school, Tim enlisted in the Army, where he served for four years and received an honorable discharge. He then lived in Sioux City for a short time, until moving to Arizona where he worked as a plumber.
Tim married Sheri Noll in Scottsdale, AZ and started his own plumbing business. He had a close relationship with his three children and was their primary care giver until they started school. He was working for Quaill Plumbing at the time of his death. Tim loved to camp and fish and for the last few years he looked forward to taking his kids up to the mountains where they had a special spot where they camped and fished. He enjoyed attending all of his children's school activities and made a special effort to be at all other sport activities.
Tim passed away at his home in Chandler, Arizona on Thursday, June 29, 2006 at the age of 43. He was preceded in death by his grandparents; his Aunt Colleen Medick; his great grandparents and several aunt and uncles.
He is survived by his three children: Drew, Sidney and Griffin Noll Davis of Chandler, AZ; his mother and stepfather, Loretta and Donald Bendlin of Spencer; three sisters and their husbands: Sally and Rick Sandvig of Spencer, Nancy and Daniel Schroeder of Hinton, IA and Karen and Daniel Schemmel of Sioux City, IA; other relatives and many friends.
Little we knew when we awoke,
The sorrows the day would bring;
The call was sudden, shock severe;
To part with one we loved so dear.
You bid no one a last farewell,
Or even said good-bye;
You were gone before we knew,
And only God knows why
For all of us you did your best,
God grant you eternal rest.
