Henrietta "Sisty" Kelley Davis, 82, passed away August 12, 2015. She was born on August 5, 1933 in Parkin, Arkansas to James Henry Kelley and Thelma Stephens Kelley Jeffries and also raised by her stepfather, Thomas M. Jeffries. A graduate of McCrory High School, she studied at the University of Central Arkansas (Arkansas State Teachers College in Conway), the University of Mississippi and Santa Rosa College in California.
Kelley was preceded in death by her husband, Donald F. Davis, son, Ronald T. Davis and a sister, Mary Elizabeth "Betty" Huff. She is survived by two sons, Larry F.

Davis of Beebe, Arkansas; great-granddaughters, Caitlin and Emily and many nieces and nephews.
Kelley retired after 27 years with the Federal Government, with 17 of those years as a Hearing Assistant with the Social Security Office of Hearing and Appeals. She spent many years as an active member of both the Arkansas Quilters Guild and Saline County Quilters Guild, and made quilts for every baby born into the family since her retirement, and worked many of the charity events sponsored by the guilds.
Many prayers and good wishes to Dr. Lance Burns, Dr. Kewen Jauss, Stagecoach Nursing and Rehab and Arkansas Hospice for all their devotion and dedication.
