Beloved wife and mother, Ann is survived by her husband of nearly 65 years, Darden Earle Davis, Jr.; daughter, Caroline Cummings Davis; brother Francis Grey (Sharon) Cummings and nephews, Christopher Cummings and Jonathan (Bridget) Cummings.

Ann nursed Darden through tonsil surgery and they were partners in life and love ever since, marrying in 1951. A proud Air Force wife, she and Darden lived in Tripoli, Libya, Charleston, SC and the Washington DC area before coming back home to Middle Tennessee in 1971. Ann was a pediatric nurse for Dr. Dan Sanders and Dr. Mary Keown until her retirement.
