Edgar Keith Davis, 90, died on December 21, 1999, at Surrey Place Convalescent Center in Bradenton, Fla.
He was born on November 18, 1909, in North Loup, Neb., the son of Orsen and Maude Davis. He was a graduate of Fussyville (Neb.) High School, Denver (Colo.) University, and the University of Colorado Medical School.
Dr. Davis was a charter and life-long member of the Denver Seventh Day Baptist Church, serving on the Planning Committee, where he helped design and build their first church facility. He was also a deacon and held a number of other positions in the church.
He married Margaret Jean McCartney on May 27, 1934, in Pueblo, Colo. She served as his nurse during most of the years of his medical practice.
"Dr. Keith" worked as a carpenter and painter with his father in the construction business until he decided to return to school and became a doctor. He began practicing medicine in the small mining town of Silverton, Colo., where he was the only doctor, surgeon, obstetrician, and administrator of a 25-bed hospital.
During World War II, he served his country in the Army, and then was transferred to the Navy where he became Lieutenant Commander. He was called up again during the Korean conflict.
He eventually returned to school, specializing in anesthesiology, which he practiced until his retirement. He was a member of the American Society of Anesthesiologists.
Dr. Keith served on the Commission of the Seventh Day Baptist General Conference from 1947-1953, and authored the monthly stewardship "Mini Messages" shared with SDB churches across the country.
Although he moved to Florida, he never moved his membership from the Denver SDB Church. He and Margaret faithfully attended the Bradenton branch of the Daytona Beach SDB Church up until the last five months, when their deteriorating health made the trip impossible.
A memorial service was held in Bradenton on December 24, 1999, with Pastors Kenneth Davis and Leland Bond officiating.
