Joseph M. Davis, 38

Joseph M. Davis, 38, of W. Rutland, passed away on Jan. 17.

He is survived by his wife, Jessica Morse-Davis; mother, Debra Davis; sister, Christine Messer and husband, Chris, along with their children, Allison, Hannah, and Zachary, as well as his extended family and friends. 

Joe enjoyed fishing, playing the guitar, and online gaming. He loved reading and spending time with his pets.  His absence leaves a hole in many hearts. He will be greatly missed. 

To celebrate his life, in true Joe style, he would tell you to “crack a cold one with the ones you love.” 

Condolences may be sent to the family at: 

103 Hitzel Way, Pittsford Vermont, 05763. 

Please consider donating to  vtfishandwildlife.com/donate in lieu of flowers. 

We leave you with a quote from one of Joe’s favorite books:  

“To exist in this vast universe for a speck of time is the great gift of life. Our tiny sliver of time is our gift of life. It is our only life. The universe will go on, indifferent to our brief existence, but while we are here, we touch not just part of that vastness but also the lives around us. Life is the gift each of us has been given. Each life is our own and no one else’s. It is precious beyond all counting. It is the greatest value we can have. Cherish it for what it truly is,” wrote Terry Goodkind, in the “Confessor.”
