Frank Davis, 75, of Beacon, NY passed away November 13, 2016 at Vassar Brothers Medical Center.  He was born May 23, 1941 in Georgetown, SC to the late Addison and Bertha Davis.

He was employed with IBM and retired after twenty years of service.  Frank loved sports and was a loyal NY teams fan. He loved people and would strike up a conversation with anyone he came in contact with.  You could always get a laugh as he always had a joke to share.  His positive attitude and faith in God allowed him to gracefully endure his battle with cancer.  He fought a good fight. He could not have done it so long without the help of his cousin Louis Simmons.

Frank is survived by his daughters; Bridget Davis of Whitehall, Pennsylvania, Regina Sweat of Poughkeepsie, NY, Leana Smith of New Windsor, NY, sisters; Ida Anderson and Bertha Morgan of Stockbridge, GA, seven grandchildren, ten great grandchildren and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
