Gary and Brenda Davis
Gary and Brenda Davis, parents of Carter Davis, assist in the Davis Family Funeral Home & Crematory office.
Gary was a minister in the Nazarene Church for 10 years and then a medical technologist at the Jane Phillips Medical Center (JPMC) in Bartlesville, Okla., for 28 years. When Carter established the Davis Family Funeral Home in Dewey in 2011, Gary was a cheerful worker who never complained and kindly greeted all who stepped through the funeral home's doors. He directed guests and families to where they needed to go, answered questions with kindness and showed godly love. He lived to minister to others and we miss him greatly. Brenda is a registered nurse who worked at the JPMC hospital for about 10 years, then at Washington County Health Department for 18 years. Despite having given thousands of immunization shots, Brenda remains loved by those who know her. Gary and Brenda's greatest pride and joy are their four children and ELEVEN grandchildren. Carter, their eldest son, and his three siblings inherited their parents' hearts for service and all four chose careers that help people: Grayson is a hotel manager, Jeremy is a pharmacist, and Summer is an elementary school music teacher. -

Gabriel and Summer Bostick
Summer Bostick is the only daughter of Gary and Brenda Davis. Throughout school she was also known as “the Davis boys little sister”. She attended Dewey schools throughout elementary and high school and graduated in 2001. While in Dewey schools she enjoyed any program that involved music: Band, Jazz Band, Stage Choir and Concert Choir. Her love of music led her to the University of Arkansas to pursue a degree in Music Education. In 2006 she finally got her dream job teaching Kindergarten through 2nd grade music. Not only does she get paid to "play all day", she also gets paid in hugs from her wonderful students.
Summer now lives in Arkansas. While in college she met an “Arkie”, fell in love with him, and settled down in the good old Natural State. Seven years of marriage and three children later, Gabe, Summer, big brother Elijah and twins Caleb and Rachel are always having fun on the go. They come to Oklahoma often to spend time with the Davis family. They also love watching sports and call the hogs often! Woo Pig Sooie! Razorbacks! (Okay, they also root for OSU whenever they can). -
