Obituary
Denna Loree Davis (Lorie), 85, of Chesterfield, VA, passed away peacefully on January 20, 2024.
Loree was born to Lorin Christian and Edwina May Christensen of Bear River City, UT, on March 26, 1938. She graduated from Bear River High School in 1956 and graduated from Brigham Young University with a degree in dietary nutrition in 1960. She married Lynn Lamar Davis, of Pocatello, ID, in the LDS Temple in Logan, UT on September 27, 1961.
Loree was a beloved mother and grandmother. She is survived by her children, Nancy Davis, Suzanne Davis, Anthony Davis, Richard Davis, and Alex Davis, her daughter-in-law, Suzy Davis, and her former daughters-in-law, Stephanie Davis, Jamie Davis, and Carolyn Hack, and her grandchildren, Jesse Davis, James Davis, Jordan Davis, Jenna Davis, Victoria Davis, Lilah Davis, Antonio Davis, Soren Davis, Gretchen Davis, Frey Davis, Helgi Davis, Harold Davis, George Davis, and Emerson Ritter.
Loree was preceded in death by her husband, Lynn Lamar Davis, her brother, Anton Christensen, her sisters, Connie Cannon and Joan Roundy, and her parents, Lorin and Edwina May Christensen.
Loree was a dedicated homemaker and a skilled dietitian, serving in the Reserve Corps of the Public Health Service. She lived an active life, enjoying gardening, cooking, horseback riding, traveling, and dancing. She also especially enjoyed spending time with her husband, Lynn, and her grandchildren. Loree was a pious and devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and found solace in her faith, serving on a mission in Illinois and as a volunteer at the Washington D.C. Temple.
The family would like to thank the staff of Trulee Evanston for the indefatigable and attentive care they provided for Loree in her final years.
