Sponsor Our ArticlesGreenwood mourns the loss of Lois Hughes Davis, a beloved community member and church organist who passed away at 98. Her contributions to music, faith, and service will be cherished. Funeral services will take place at Lowell Street United Methodist Church, inviting friends and family to celebrate her remarkable life.
Greenwood is mourning the passing of its beloved resident, Lois Hughes Davis, who left us peacefully at the age of 98 on April 6, 2025, at McLeod Hospice House in Florence. For many, Lois was not just a name; she was an integral part of the community, a cherished church organist, and a friend to so many.
Born on December 18, 1926, in Newberry, Lois was the daughter of Ben M. and Mattie Waits Hughes. She grew up with a passion for music and community service. After graduating from Greenwood High School, she took her ambition to the next level and attended the Greenwood College of Commerce. Her journey was noteworthy, and she made significant contributions throughout her life.
Lois enjoyed a successful career at the South Carolina Employment Security Commission, where she dedicated many years of service before retiring in 1978. However, retiring didn’t stop her; she took on a new chapter by working several years at Greenwood Mop and Broom, where she made even more friends and enriched her life.
For Lois, faith was at the core of her existence. A proud member of Lowell Street United Methodist Church, she contributed her talents by playing the organ and taking part in the choir. Her music brought joy to many, and her voice will surely be missed during Sunday services. Throughout her life, she was seen as a beacon of light and comfort for the congregation and a pillar of the community.
Lois is survived by her loving son, Charlie Davis, and his partner, Paige, who live in Columbia, South Carolina. She also leaves behind two adoring grandchildren, Tyler Davis and his wife Madeleine from Charleston, as well as Hunter Davis from Columbia. Adding to her legacy, Lois was also the proud great-grandmother to Charlie and Evan Davis.
Lois’ passing is a reminder that life can be fragile. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Charles Ed Davis, and her daughter, Terri Davis. She also had three brothers who have since passed: Ed Hughes, Ben Hughes, and Harold Hughes. The love and support she shared with her family and friends will be cherished forever.
To celebrate her remarkable life, funeral services will be held at 11 am on Friday at Lowell Street United Methodist Church. The family invites friends and loved ones to join them in their time of remembrance. Following the service, the family will graciously receive friends, making it a heartfelt opportunity for all to share stories and fond memories of Lois.
A private burial will take place at Greenwood Memorial Gardens, where Lois will rest peacefully alongside her loved ones. In recognition of the wonderful care provided to Lois during her final days, the Davis family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the medical and care staff of McLeod Hospice and The Manor.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages memorial contributions to be made in Lois’ honor to Lowell Street UMC, located at 300 Lowell Avenue, Greenwood, SC 29646. Every donation will help continue her legacy of faith and community service.
The Blyth Funeral Home & Cremation Services is taking care of all the arrangements for the Davis family. As the community comes together to remember Lois, may her spirit continue to inspire kindness and love.
