She briefly moved to Georgia for a moment in time until she was ready to come back to Greenville to be close to her grandchildren.
Davie loved the Lord and her family with all her heart. She enjoyed spending time with family and friends, loved her MSU bulldogs and became a huge fan of the Dallas Cowboys after they acquired Dak Prescott. Not a day went by that you would not catch her watching Gunsmoke. There was nothing she loved more then attending her Grandchildren’s events and was one of their biggest fans. She loved them very much.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband Elam Rusk Jr. and her parents Donald McCully and Willie Bell Germany McCully.
She is survived by her daughter Kimberly Sims (Ronnie), son Zeek McNemar (Sara), grandchildren Zachary Sims (Allie),Caley Sims, Lucas Sims, Nathaniel Sheller and Brittany Hernandez (Chucky). Also, two great grandchildren Grant and Grayson Hernandez. She will be missed by so many of her cousins and a lot of lifelong friends.
