Briley Brooke
Davis
May 12, 2001 — Jun 1, 2026
Roseland
Briley Brooke Davis, a resident of Roseland, LA, passed away on June 1, 2026, at North Oaks Medical Center, Hammond, LA, at the age of 25. Briley was born May 12, 2001, in Hammond, LA. Briley is survived by her parents, Thomas Scott Davis and DeeDee Gill Davis, grandparents, Jerry and Diane Gill, uncles Jerry (Jay) Gill and fiancée Kacey and Steven Davis and wife Becky, and furbaby, Dovie. She is preceded in death by grandparents, Tommy and Frances Anne Davis, uncle, Brian Davis, and her very best furbaby, Heath Joseph.
Briley was the most beautiful soul, a child of God and follower of Jesus Christ, and was baptized at Kedron Baptist Church. Briley had many gifts, perhaps the best of which, was always seeing the best in everyone, and supporting others with all their dreams and aspirations.
Briley was a 2019 graduate of Oak Forest Academy as a valedictorian of her class. She received many academic honors, academic and athletic (archery) scholarships. She chose to attend The University of the Cumberlands in Willamsburg, KY, on an archery scholarship, majoring in Pre-Med and competing for the UC Patriots Archery Team, until covid and illness required her to return home. Briley enjoyed the outdoor lifestyle, especially years of great memories at the Tower Hunting Club in Arkansas and her family lake property in Mississippi. Briley was an accomplished archer, competing and winning on the state and national levels in 4-H, S3DA, NFAA and ASA.
Briley's true passion was reading and writing and was an avid book collector and novelist. Briley had an angelic voice, and her renditions of various gospel, old country, and contemporary tunes were a joy to hear.
