Willie C. Davis

Willie C. Davis, 85, of South Beloit, formerly of Aurora, Colorado, passed away unexpectedly on March 12, 2026, at Beloit Memorial Hospital. Born in Karnack, Texas, to Robert Davis and Loula Bell Russell, he married Juanita Morales Ponce in 2006. Together, Willie and Juanita shared many happy miles traveling across the United States to visit family.

He took quiet pleasure in riding his scooter through the neighborhood and maintained his car with meticulous care. A devoted football fan, Willie followed the Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs with enthusiasm, and he loved to unwind with classic cowboy movies. His extensive collection of stylish shoes was a point of pride, and he relished a good meal of barbecue, ribs, pulled pork, or brisket.

Willie is survived by his wife, Juanita; his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren; and his brother, Bobby Davis. He was predeceased by his parents.
