LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – Thomas Davies, born March 2, 1942, in Pittsburg, Penn., passed away after a long battle with cancer on May 23, 2017.
Tom leaves behind his wife, Betty; his family, Kirk, Marie and Ashley Macdonald, and Steve, Merlah, Cloud and Star Hamm; his former wife Elvira; and all his good friends at “The Riv” for the last 30 years.
In 1960 after graduating from high school, Tom joined the U.S. Army. He was sent to England and then Vietnam. He was wounded in Vietnam and was later honorably discharged from the Army.
His military career didn’t end there. He enlisted in the U. S. Air Force and retired after 24 years of service.
He traveled extensively throughout Europe and Asia, but his favorite duty station was Hawaii which will be his final resting place at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific at “Punchbowl.”
He will be greatly missed and we will miss his time being “Gramps.”
