Sylvia Nell
Williamson Davis
Jan 11, 1939 — May 30, 2022
Kentwood
On May 30, 2022, Sylvia Nell Williamson Davis was ushered to her eternal home by Heavenly hosts and met by a welcoming committee of family and friends gone on before her. Now, she is completely healed and restored.
Born January 11, 1939, Nell was one of the most caring, loving, tender-hearted souls you would meet. She had an innocent way of making us laugh and feel comfortable in her presence.
She was a devoted wife of nearly 65 years, mother, sister, friend, and hard worker. She was an accountant for the Louisiana Department of Agriculture and Forestry for many years.
Nell will be greatly missed. We all loved her so much!
She is survived by her husband, James E. Davis; 1 Daughter, Desiree Chamberlain; 1 Son, Perry Max Davis; 4 Sisters, Sarah Short, Maxine Pruitt, Judy Crouse, Geraldine Dean; 2 Brothers, John Williamson, Dennis Williamson; 5 Grandchildren, Adah Chamberlain, Davis Chamberlain, James Davis, Kristen Jacobs, Treva Bouquet; 3 Great-Grandchildren, Sam Jacobs, Maggie Jacobs, Norah Jacobs
She is preceded by her parents, Max and Lula Williamson; Brother, David Williamson.
