DAVIS, GARRY W. of Pontiac, went to be with the Lord on November 1, 2024 at 78 years of age.

Garry was a veteran of the US Army – Vietnam and was the general manager of Warehouse Tire in Pontiac and Waterford for over 30 years. His greatest life’s work was serving as pastor of his beloved church, United Faith General Baptist Church in Pontiac for 24 years. In his spare time he enjoyed fishing, traveling, football, and of course, those Detroit Lions. He had a great sense of humor with a soft heart and loved being a foster parent for many years, always wanting to adopt all of them. A man who will never be replaced, Garry will be so dearly missed for the love he gave to his family and his church family.
