Marie Davis Hicks, a residence of Springville, Alabama: June 22, 1940 – April 23, 2020.
Ms. Hicks was the youngest of six children born to Henry Haelston Davis and Flora Belle Kersh Davis of Grand Bay, Alabama.
She was preceded in death by her husband Edgar L. Hicks, three brothers Robert Davis, William Davis, Gene Davis along with two sisters Mary Ann Davis Mahathy and Martha Nelle Davis Floore.
She is survived by two sons, Joseph F. Breighner, Jr (Janet) and Brian Scott Cornelius (Kristie). Grandchildren; Brent Breighner, Kristen Breighner Mullins (Keith), Ivan Cornelius, Reagan Cornelius, Canaan Cornelius and Courtney Breighner; Great Grandchildren; Ava Mullins, Isabella Breighner, Emma Mullins, Sophia Breighner and Mia Mullins as well as many nieces and nephews whom she loved dearly.
Although a long-time resident of Springville, Alabama, the last four years of her life, the Diversacare facility in Oneonta was her home. The staff at Diversacare provided wonderful care and love.
Our Mom was a living miracle. An automobile accident over 40-years ago almost took her life. She suffered a severe head injury and lived the remainder of her life paralyzed on the right side of her body. Her resolve and determination allowed her to live a full life by overcoming her physical infirmity.
She was a member of Springville First Baptist Church where she attended and served until she could no longer participate.
