Elsa Eubanks Davis went to be with her Lord on Thursday, December 31, 2020. She was born June 9, 1927 to Wiley E. Eubanks and Olline Kilmer Eubanks in Columbus, Mississippi. She graduated from Columbus Lee High School in 1945 and was salutatorian of her class, and in 1949 graduated from Mississippi State College for Women (MUW). She worked for the Mississippi State Tax Commission in Columbus after graduation from the "W".

Elsa lived her entire life in Mississippi except for two short stays in Louisiana and Tennessee due to her husband Earl's career. She and Earl lived in Meridian for 19 years and she always said it was the best place to live. She had many friends there and enjoyed her bridge clubs.

Western Auto brought them to Jackson where Elsa was employed by the Physical Therapy School at the University Med Center. Retiring from there she and Earl moved to Columbus to live in the old Eubanks home place where they enjoyed many happy years. A highlight each year was when their two grandchildren came to visit in the summer.

Elsa was a lifelong Methodist and taught Sunday school and
circle in Meridian, Jackson and Columbus. She was a member of the Pioneer Club in Columbus.

Elsa was predeceased by her husband, Earl and is survived by her son Earl G. Davis, Jr. (Janet); her grandchildren, Gate Davis (Sarah) of Boerne, Texas, and Amy Rutherford (Way) of Waco, Texas; and five
great-grandchildren, Eleanor and Wiley Davis and Miles, Davis and Lucy Rutherford.

A family graveside service will be held at Friendship Cemetery in Columbus on Monday, January 4, 2021.
