Judy Ann Davis was born on July 9, 1950, in Cleveland, Ohio, to the late Claude and Doris Williams. From the very beginning, Judy carried a brilliance, a determined spirit, and a warmth that drew people close to her.
As a student, Judy was gifted in mathematics and had a deep love for poetry. One of her favorite poems was Paul Laurence Dunbar’s “Little Brown Baby,” a piece that reflected a loving father speaking playfully and full of affection and love to his child. Judy had a mind for numbers, a heart for language, and a spirit that embraced both strength and grace.
Judy attended Glenville High School, where she was not only a strong student but also a talented athlete. She played volleyball and excelled in track and field, often winning gold medals while competing in the 200-meter and the 4x100m relay. In April 1967, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. visited Glenville High School for a scholarship fundraiser. Judy was one of the students who directly benefited from the funds raised through that historic event, receiving a scholarship to attend The Ohio State University. That scholarship reflected not only the generosity and hope invested in Glenville’s students, but also Judy’s own hard work, promise, and determination.
Throughout her career, Judy built a reputation as a dependable professional and leader. She served as a bank manager and top salesperson who was promoted to area sales manager at AT&T. Over the years, she held various positions with companies such as, AT&T and Norrell, bringing excellence, leadership, and dedication to every role.
Beyond her accomplishments, Judy will be remembered most for who she was to the people who loved her. She was a mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend. She had a way of leaving an impression on those around her, not only through what she did, but through the generosity, strength, and love she poured into others.
Judy was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 25 years, Jerome Davis Sr.; her parents, Claude and Doris Williams; her brother, Claude Williams; and her sister, Perlette Watkins.
