Born June 12, 1946, in Nashville, Tennessee, he was the only child of the late Richard and Mary Brannon Davis. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his stepson, Sam (Leslee) Lowe. He is survived by his wife, Ellen; stepson David (Kellee) Lowe; step-grandson Matthew Lowe all of Birmingham, Alabama; several cousins to whom he was very close. Dick grew up in Donelson, graduated from Donelson High School, Middle Tennessee State University, and received his master’s degree from Georgia State University. He devoted his entire career to commercial real estate development all over the Southeast and along the Eastern seaboard. Dick’s love of history led him to join the Sons of the American Revolution, Sons of Confederate Veterans, and Huguenot Society. He was truly a Renaissance man…loving music, poetry, reading and yet, at the same time, NASCAR and hunting. So many memories, including those of great times hunting and cutting wood, were cultivated and enhanced during time spent at his much-beloved farm outside of Clarksville. Dick was a man of high integrity, honor, and loyalty and those that knew him made a friend for life. A Celebration of Life Memorial Service will be held Sunday, February 6, 2022 at 2 PM with Elder John Tidwell officiating. Family will receive friends and visitors two hours prior to the service.
