Evelyn Kathryn Cullen Davis, 92, of Parksley, VA and formerly of Berlin, MD, died December 5, 2019 at Chesapeake Cottage, Snow Hill, MD.

Born in Selbyville, DE, September 11, 1927, she was the daughter of the late John "Pete" Medford Cullen and Mary Louise Doorly Cullen and stepmother, Blanche Shockley Cullen, who raised Evelyn from the age of 3.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Francis R. Davis, in 1999. Also preceding her death were brothers, John Wesley (infant), Fred, Lawrence, Clinton and Amos "Bud”; sisters, Madelyn (infant), Anna Mae Marvel Davis, Alice Davidson, Elaine Townsend and Theresa Collins.

She loved life and never met a stranger and loved children. At a young age, her father taught her to play the harmonica. She would whip out a harmonica from her pocket at any given time and play along to any music! Evelyn loved to play hymns and gospel music. Puzzles were a favorite pass time and reading romance novels. Evelyn retired from Signet Bank (now BB&T) and had worked at the A&P for many years.
