Marcia Davis, age 68, of Monroe, lost her brave battle with ovarian cancer on Wednesday, December 9, 2015.
Marcia was born in Monroe on November 9, 1947, the daughter of Delbert J. and Gudrun (Lien) Kundert. She attended Blackford Country School and graduated as class salutatorian from Monroe High School in 1965. She married the love of her life, Dennis "Doc" Davis, on July 18, 1965 at St. John's United Church of Christ in Monroe. Following her graduation from high school, Marcia worked at Commercial Bank. In 1972, Marcia and Doc started the family business, Davis Implement, where they worked side by side for 30 years. Marcia was active in many community and church organizations and was a faithful and active member of the Monroe United Methodist Church. She directed and participated in the church choir, taught piano lessons for several years, and was an eager volunteer for many organizations including Stonecroft Ministries, The Behring Senior Center, The Monroe Clinic gift shop, and local Red Cross Blood Drives. Her greatest passion and ministry was through music. Marcia's love for music and Jesus Christ were evident in her many solo and ensemble performances throughout local communities and singing with the quartet 4 His Praise. She enjoyed traveling and found her greatest joy was spending time with her family especially her grandchildren.
She is lovingly survived by her husband, Dennis "Doc" Davis; a daughter, Robin (Brett) Apold, and their daughters, Hannah and Gabriela; a son, Russell (Susan) Davis and their daughters, Lindsey and Aubrey; her parents, Delbert and Gudrun Kundert; two brothers, Larry (Diane) Kundert and John (Jean) Kundert; a sister, Joanne (Andy) Eberle; and several nieces and nephews.
