Melva Babb Davis, 69, of Little Rock, Arkansas went to her heavenly home on Saturday, April 29. She is survived by her husband of 17 years, Ed Davis, her children Manndy Malaby (Chris), John Shoffner (Allison), Donna Wynn (Kevin), Jenifer Bohanan (Derek), and Blake Davis (Ashley). She is also survived by her beloved grandchildren Madalyn and Lucia Malaby, Matthew, Katherine, and Lily Shoffner, Lola and Lainey Wynn, Loren, Molly, and Rhett Bohanan, and Olivia and Owen Davis. She is survived by her siblings Donna Allen, Suzy Baxter, and Patrick Babb and numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her parents, Melvin and Doris Babb, and her brothers Dennis and Mike Babb. Her devotion to family and her faith was the foundation that allowed her to touch the lives of many during her lifetime. Melva was a loving wife, mother, sister and friend and her adoration for her children and grandchildren was the focus of her life. She had a laugh that was contagious, a heart of gold and a southern drawl that made strangers smile. She will be greatly missed and the world is less full without her. Her loved ones will miss her "a bushel and a peck". A memorial service will be held on Wednesday, May 3, 2017 at 10 a.m. at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, Little Rock, Arkansas. Memorials may be made to Trinity Episcopal or Lupus.org. Arrangements by Roller-Chenal Funeral Home (501) 224-8300. Online guestbook: www.rollerfuneralhomes.com.
