Paul "Rick" E. Davis' Obituary
Paul E Davis 61 years old and from Strongsville, Ohio, passed away on September 23.
Known as Rick by those who love him, he was born Jan 1, 1962, and grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana. A 1980 graduate of Ben Davis, Rick was an athlete who excelled at wrestling. After meeting on a blind date, Rick married his longtime love, Cindy, on June 19, 1989. In 1999, they welcomed their son Eric—their greatest joy. Dad and son developed their close bond over a love of fishing and camping, and the family always cheered Eric on during his soccer games.
A determined and driven man, Rick retired after a successful career in sales, working for good friend and owner of Mueller Tire. Well known for his love of golf and gardening, he was also a lifetime Indiana University fan.
Uncle Rick, talking and brainstorming my future with you is something I will always cherish. I was always impressed with your quick wit and the way you talked to me like anything was possible. As you always said before going to bed or out for the night, I’ll keep an eye on Eric and I won’t burn down the house. That’s all you ask.
Forever remembered by all who knew and loved him, he will be missed by many. VISITATION will be held on Tuesday, September 26th from 3pm - 6:30pm at Jardine Funeral Home, 15822 Pearl Road, Strongsville. A Celebration of Life service will begin promptly at 6:30pm.
