Mary Jane Davis Obituary

Mary Jane (Benson) Davis, 70, of rural Rockville, Indiana, went to be with the Lord on Nov. 2, 2018. Born Nov. 18, 1947, in Bunson, Indiana, she was the daughter of Charles and Rachel (Wheeler) Benson.

Mary was retired from DADC in Terre Haute, and during her time there created several great relationships that she cherished deeply and continued even after retirement.

Mary found renewed life in a late life courtship that led to partner and best friend Charles Davis, whom she married Oct. 25, 2010. Mary also cherished her time spent with all her grandchildren; great-grandchildren; and longtime friend, Maxine Spendal, and the adventures they pursued over the years.

Mary was an active member of Berean Baptist Church in Terre Haute and truly enjoyed her fellowship and church activities throughout the years of serving the Lord.

Mary is survived by her husband, Charles Davis. She was one of seven children; surviving include Nancy (Bill) Prouse, Sandy Russell, Richard (Fran) Benson, Becky Hall and Betsy Rabold. She was blessed with two children, Roy (Diane) McConnaughey and Starla (Dan) Jones. Also surviving are several grandchildren, Adam (Shelby) McConnaughey, Tara Bennett, Lindsey McConnaughey and Lyle Wimmer; and several great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her parents; brother, Chuck Benson; brother-in-law, Jerry Russell; and sister-in-law, Elaine Benson.

Funeral services will be at 1 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2018, at Barnes and Rice Funeral Home, 111 E. High St., Rockville, Indiana, with Pastor Larry Lilly officiating. Visitation will be 11 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2018, until time of the service. Burial will be in Beacon Hill Cemetery, U.S. 41, south of Rockville.
