Virginia Davis

In Loving Memory of Virginia "Ginny" Davis
 
With deep love, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend, Ginny Davis, who passed away peacefully surrounded by her family on May 7, 2025, just shy of her 93nd birthday.

Born in Middlefield, Ohio on May 18, 1932, Ginny lived a long, spirited, and deeply connected life which truly impacted everyone. She was a fiercely independent woman who touched countless lives with her warmth, humor, and unwavering love for her family and her community; which included her breakfast, swim and card groups. 

She is survived by her older sister, Barbara McClurg. She is the cherished mother of Tom (Karen), late Bonnie (Jim Soltis), Gary (Janice), Barry, and Larry (Teresa), and a proud grandmother to 16: Scott (Annie), Anessa (Marty), Adam (Stephanie), Jeremiah (Lynda), Amy (Neill), Heidi (Joe), Charlie (Michelle), Isaiah (Melissa), Erin(Nick), Jimmy (Kristin), Leona (Rob), Rebekah (Stacey), Jesse (Katherine), Heather (Eric), Katie (Tony), and Duke. Her great legacy continues through her 46 great-grandchildren, each of whom brought her immense joy and pride.
She was preceded in death by her loving husbands, William "Bill" Shipman and Griffith "Gene" Davis, her sister, Helen Harrington and her daughter Bonnie Soltis.

A true Cardinal Huskie for life, Ginny was a devoted sports fan who never missed a game. Her loyalty to the Huskie community and beyond was unwavering, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
Ginny will be remembered for her enduring strength, her joyful spirit, and the unconditional love. She was deeply loved by many, and her legacy will live on in the hearts of all those she touched.

A celebration of her life will be held at Cardinal High School on Sunday May 18, 2025. All are welcome to honor and remember a remarkable woman who gave so much to so many. Doors open at 12:00 pm, service begins at 12:30 and a picnic lunch to immediately follow in one of her favorite places, Cardinal High School.
