Catawba Island

Majesta Mae "Madge" Davids, passed away Tuesday, Jan. 31, 2023, at home in Catawba Vineyards.

She was born Sept. 21, 1923, in Kenton, to Floyd and Susan (Dyer) Fults and grew up on the family farm. She loved that farm to her last day.

She married Ohio Northern University college sweetheart, Albert "Sonny" Davids, on Nov. 17, 1943. They started their family in Port Clinton then built their forever home on Catawba Island. Sonny preceded her in death July 2, 2003. Her best friend for the past 15 years, side by side, was her dog, "Buckeye." He and Madge were never apart.

Madge was an avid golfer and bridge player at CIC. She was one of the charter members of Catawba Island Club Golferetts. She also served as past president of Junior Women's Club and Magruder Hospital Auxiliary. She and Sonny were boaters, golfers, skiers, and partiers. Retirement years were spent in Florida on Fort Myers Beach and at age 50, Madge learned to play tennis. She became a crazy good player. Madge always loved a party. Most recently she loved her 99th. Today, she's dancing with Sonny!

Madge is survived by her children, Susie (Jim) Sokol of Brea, California, Cindy Crawmer of Port Clinton, and Jeff (Mariann) Davids of Port Clinton; seven grandchildren; and 16 great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her sister, Wilma Oborn; and husband, Albert "Sonny" Davids.
