Thomas Davies

Thomas “Tom” Allen Davies, born Jan. 5, 1962, in Fairmont, retired to his heavenly home on June 25, 2024, at Mon Health Medical Center following a courageous battle with cancer.

He is survived by his wife of 39 years, Pauline “Polly” (White) Davies and his two sons, Bradley Allen and Anthony Scott. In addition, he is survived by his parents, Jerry and Rose Davies, all of Morgantown; his siblings, Jim Davies, of Grafton, David Davies, of Morgantown, and Melanie Davies, of Independence; as well as numerous nephews, nieces and great-nephews and great-nieces; and brothers-in-law, William “Bill” White, of Morgantown, and Teddy Cadd, of Port Deposit, Md. He also leaves behind many special friends and great coworkers — a special thank you to Dan Izzi for going above and beyond.

Tom was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Thomas and Willis Davies; maternal grandparents, Mike and Mabel Dafonzo; father-in-law and mother-in-law, Edward T. White Jr. and Catherine White; sister-in-law, Shirley Cadd; brothers-in-law, Glen White, Thomas White; and a nephew, Teddy Cadd Jr.

He was a 1980 graduate of Morgantown High School. In his younger years, Tom held various positions with Murphy Mart, Summers Auto Parts and Marris Country Store in Morgantown. Tom was employed for 33 years with First Energy at the Fort Martin Power Station, most recently as a Production Supervisor/Control Room Foreman.

Tom was a loving husband and father who enjoyed spending time with his family and taking many trips to the beach.

Tom was a man of faith and a member of The River Church. He was an intelligent man who loved to read and research various topics including politics and the economy. In his younger years, he became an avid fan of Star Trek and Star Wars. The love continued into his adult years where he shared his love of Star Wars with his son, Bradley. He also enjoyed baseball games and train rides with his son, Anthony.

Family and friends are invited to gather at The River Church, 4234 Dents Run Blvd., Morgantown, WV 26501, from 5-8 p.m. on Thursday, June 27, and again from 10 a.m. on Friday until the time of the funeral service at 11 a.m. with Pastor Nathaniel Hudson officiating. Following the service, Tom will be laid to rest at Beverly Hills Memorial Gardens.
