Charles Ernest Davis III

March 27, 1947 - December 8, 2019

Charles Ernest Davis III, age 72, passed away on December 8, 2019 in his family home in Kearns, Utah. He was born on March 27, 1947 in Washington D.C. to Dorothy Robinson and Charles E. Davis II. Dad inspired us to be gentle in our hearts, to show compassion and empathy towards others, and to always act with integrity. He represented these principles in his work at Sea World, The Wild Animal Park, San Jose Unified School District, and his time helping developmentally disabled adults at Hope Services. His biggest accomplishment in life was being our Dad. He is in each of us - in Travis' loyalty, in Cherille's compassion, in Charlie's sensitivity, in Darci's gentleness, and in Weston's tenderness. In our walks on the beach we will forever feel his spirit jogging by, stopping to remind us of what really matters in this life - to love and to be loved. It's all that he ever wanted. In our immeasurable grief is the blessing of having a Dad that we loved and adored so much. His legacy lives on in each of us - and we will inspire so many people just like he did in his life. He is survived by Dutchess, his soulmate dog; Vena Suprise, partner and mother of his 5 children; Janet Moutinho, fiancé; Travis Davis, son and Alyse Davis, daughter-in-law; Cherille Davis, daughter; Charles E.
