Rebecca Jo "Becky" Davis

Rebecca “Becky Jo” Davis March 29, 1950 – October 27, 2024

Becky, 74, of Massillon, Ohio, passed away peacefully at home on October 27th after a courageous nine-year journey with Alzheimer’s disease. Up until the very end, she remained joyful and sweet, just as she had been throughout her life.

A proud graduate of Washington High School, she spent most of her career at Republic Steel. Becky was a dedicated wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend. She was known for her selflessness, humor, and a smile that could light up any room. Married for 36 wonderful years to her devoted husband, Tom, she found endless joy in their life together. Their daughter, Maggie, was the light of her life and will forever be her little girl.

Becky had a special place in her heart for animals and always had a pet by her side. She loved the outdoors, especially gardening, and enjoyed cooking for family and friends, who will always remember her delicious meals. Known for her silly, fun-loving spirit, she was the life of the party and always ready to dance, especially when Elvis was playing. She had a passion for sports, particularly the Cleveland Indians, and was known for her skill at the card table.

Becky was preceded in death by her parents, Edward and Rebecca Berry; sister, Betty Chaboude; and dear friend, Karen Williams. She is survived by her husband, Tom; daughter, Maggie; stepdaughters, Susan Martin and Shelly (Dan) Potter; and Mary Roudebush, who she adored as her own; sisters, Shirley Jordan and Nancy Paul; brother-in-law, Charlie Chaboude; and grandchildren, Leigh Ann Martin and Lauren (Josh) Davies. She will be deeply missed and forever held in our hearts.

As per Becky’s wishes, there will be no services. A private celebration of life will be held by her family at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the American Alzheimer’s Foundation or your local animal shelter. A special thanks to Crossroads Hospice for providing exceptional care.
