Some of my earliest memories are of B.T. and Edna Rea allowing me to stay with them a day or so and play with those two sweet little girls. I remember him always having something to tease me about but you always knew when that grin showed up he wasn't serious.
ReplyDeleteHe will be missed. Prayers for all of you for peace and good memories.

Thanks for the beautiful words Sharon, love you
DeleteWhat a wonderful man. I will always remember his words of encouragement following a lesson or a sermon. I am confident that he is now enjoying the reward God promised to faithful servants.
ReplyDeleteThey don't come any better than B.T. Davis. Best neighbor a man could ask for, my kids counted him as another grandpa, and he treated them like one of his own, B.T. Thank you forever!!
