DAVIS FAMILY
FUNERAL HOME
DEWEY, WASHINGTON CO, OK
(permission granted)
Nell was born on Oct. 6,
1940, in Tarby, OK, to parents Joe Earl Davidson and Ruby Marie Coggins
Wise, and she was the third oldest of 11 kids. On May 30, 1958, Nell
married Bobby Joe Pendergraff of Shady Point, OK, and soon after the
couple established the Bartlesville-Dewey area as their home where they
have lived for the past 62 years.
Nell spent the majority of her life as a stay at home mom and wife,
caring for their four children. Nell loved her kids dearly. This love
for children extended beyond her own kids as she began a career in
childcare, having served at numerous churches in childcare programs
throughout the years until she retired. Of course, this just gave her
more time to spend with and spoil her own grandkids and great grandkids
who all affectionately called her "Nanny." Nell had a motherly servant's heart that impacted countless lives through her love of
kids.
Nell is survived by her husband of 62 years, Bob Pendergraff; son
Phillip Pendergraff of Tulsa; daughter Terri Farmer of Bartlesville
(married to Ken); daughter Mary Bulkley of Bartlesville; and son Matt
Pendergraff of Bartlesville (married to Barb). She is also survived by
12 grandchildren: Jennifer Gomez (Jeff), Chris Farmer (Beth), Melissa
Montgomery (Mike), Meghan Franks (Chance), Jessica Stacavich, Gabby
Pendergraff, Gavin Pendergraff, Gracie Pendergraff, Shiloh Pendergraff,
Zech Pendergraff, Sarah Pendergraff and Lily Pendergraff. She is also
survived by 15 great grandchildren: Sadie, Brooke, Silas, Audrey, Mady,
Wesley, Caleb, Sophia, Ava, Ella, Clara, Brantley, Bayleigh, Mekayla and
Charlotte.
Nell is also survived by three sisters, Helen Morgan, Kathy Rainwater,
and Betty Steelman; brothers Joe, Johnny and Mike Davidson; other
relatives, loved ones and friends.
She was preceded in death by her
parents; sisters, Linda Bentley, Patricia Harris and Virginia Miller;
brother Gary Davidson; great-granddaughter Hadley Farmer and great
grandson Austin Franks.
