Raymond Crimm Davis of Irving passed away January 19, 2019 in Irving. He was born on November 16, 1925 in Old Glory, Texas to Flavous and Nora (Wood) Davis. Raymond was a true family man who loved every chance to gather his family around him. He enjoyed flying his plane, loved being on the water fishing, scuba diving, and skiing. Raymond was a member of St. Luke’s Catholic Church, the Irving Water Ski Club, Endurance Motorcycle Clubs and RV Chapters, as well as belonging to various charity and professional boards. Raymond’s legacy started when he formed Davis Crane Service with his nephew Bobby Davis in April of 1962 and two “VERY” used cranes.
