Sue Carol Davisson, lovingly known as Mom and Mamaw, of Hundred and Maidsville, W.Va., and Sebring, Fla., passed away peacefully on December 30, 2025.

Born on May 19, 1937, in Littleton, W.Va., Sue was the daughter of the late Roy and Beda Robinson Pyles. She was the devoted wife of the late William Gene Davisson, with whom she shared sixty-eight years of marriage.

Sue is survived by her son, William “Bill” Gene Davisson Jr. (Darlene); her granddaughter, Sheena Rene’ Davisson Martin (Adam); step-granddaughters, Tali Sickles (Cody) and Tasha Soccorsi (fiancé Michael Pellegrini); and her great-granddaughter, Kennedy Rose Martin. She is also survived by her brother, Allen Kent Pyles (Jo Anne), and many nieces and nephews. Sue was preceded in death by her husband, parents, and her sister, Kitty McFarland.

Sue attended college at Glenville State University. In her earlier years, she worked as an EMT and beautician, taught Head Start, and was a social worker for local senior citizens. However, the job she was most proud of was being the matriarch of the Davisson family—the steady center around which her small family gathered.

Sue was headstrong in the best way: strong-willed, courageous, and determined, yet endlessly loving and generous. If she loved you, you knew it—through her cooking (famous for her jams, pickled beets, cobblers, and rhubarb pies), her messages on social media, a card or surprise box of Florida oranges in the mail, a yearly Christmas ornament, or her many other simple acts of kindness and generosity.

Sue found joy in the simple pleasures of life: hours spent gardening; the comfort of baking and canning; reading the Bible; watching Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy!; taking walks and golf cart rides around Buttonwood Bay; and tending to her hummingbird feeders.

She also relished the finer things in life: shopping and traveling with her granddaughter; getting manicures and pedicures; and wearing her beautiful wardrobe, jewelry, and shoe collection to church on Sundays.

For Sue, tea parties were always special, card and bingo nights were competitive, and gospel music was the soundtrack of her and Gene’s travels in their motor home.

Sue also loved watching football, and whether they were winning or losing, she proudly cheered on her Mountaineers and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Her son and granddaughter could always expect a Saturday and/or Sunday text asking, “Any good games on?” Bowl season brought her even greater excitement.

Sue embraced a life well lived, spending winters in Florida and summers in West Virginia, enjoying the best of both worlds and the company of her friends and those she loved most.

Sue will be deeply missed; however, if there is one thing she taught her family, it was how to be tenacious and resilient. Sue’s legacy will live on in the strength (and stubbornness) of her family, the traditions she passed down, and the countless memories she created.

In keeping with Sue’s snowbird spirit and her dislike of cold weather, a spring tea party to celebrate her life will be planned for a later date.
