In loving memory of A Husband, A Father, A Grandfather, and A Friend. Bruce E. Davis Sr. was more than just these simple things he was a believer in Christ who lived his life in service of others. He loved his Family and Friends dearly. You could always find him asking someone “Is there anything I can do to help you?”

Bruce was a strong advocate for justice and a Life Member of the NAACP and served as the Economic Development Committee Chair for the NJ State Conference NAACP and a member of the Southern Burlington County NAACP branch. Understanding that all politics are local, Bruce was sure to have his boots on the ground be it a city council meeting, the NJ Statehouse, or Capital Hill. He was a member: of the Burlington City Democratic committee, Historic Yorkshire Alliance, and Main Street Burlington, NJ Citizens Action to name a few.

Bruce was a sports fanatic and enjoyed watching his favorite teams which were the NY Giants, Brooklyn Nets, NY Yankees, and his beloved Seton Hall University basketball…Go Pirates!  He was also an avid moviegoer and enjoyed the Sci-Fi genre and all things Marvel. He enjoyed good food and traveling which he did often with his wife, Cynthia.
