Susan Diane Davis, 67, of 1483 Beulah Church Road, Lumberton, went to her home in heaven on Friday, January 14, 2022.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Horace Durham Davis; a brother, Johnny Davis; her mother, Annie Lee Polk; and her constant companion for 14 years, her dog, Bandit.

Diane was born on February 20, 1954 in Portsmouth, Va. She met her future husband, Horace at his place of business and worked beside him for several years before they wed. She was a machine operator for several years before her early retirement and later delivered papers for The Robesonian and The Fayetteville Observer. The couple had one son, Timothy, who they loved beyond measure.

Diane was a wonderful wife to Horace for many years and his caretaker before his passing in 2010. She was an amazing mother that would do anything for her son. In his eyes she was the best momma that ever lived. As a nana she loved her grandbabies as only a grandparent could. Her heartbeat for them and they gave her the strength to preserve through her pain. As a mother-in-law, she loved her daughter-in-law, Nikki, as if she were her own child. As a friend she was always there when needed.

Diane leaves to cherish her memory her son, Timothy Davis; a daughter in law, Nikki Davis; two grandchildren, Kelsey Morgan Davis and Korbin Maddux Davis; her brother, Steve Davis (Jan); several nieces; several nephews; and many friends.

The family will receive friends and family at the home.

A memorial service will be held at a later date.
