Obituary of John E. Davis, DVM

John E. Davis, DVM, 69, passed away peacefully at his home in Cazenovia on October 25, 2024. A graduate of Skaneateles High School, he studied at Cornell University and the University of Perugia in Italy, and completed internships in Guelph, Canada, and Utah before earning a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in St. Kitts. John loved his family and animals very much. He was smart, funny, compassionate, hardworking, and generous with everything he had. John cared deeply for animals and took great joy in his work as a veterinarian, founding four animal clinics in Cazenovia and Clay, including Ridge Animal Hospital, Animal Kingdom Veterinary Hospital, CNY Veterinary Services, and Country Critters Veterinary Clinic. He loved the New York Yankees, Syracuse Basketball, and the New York Football Giants, and often took his family on trips to see games together. He also enjoyed being in nature and hunting, practicing Quality Deer Management on his land in Cazenovia. John is survived by his heartbroken family, including his wife and partner-in-everything, Kathy Yates Davis; his children, Tom Davis (wife Melissa) of Camillus, NY, Kim Persse (husband Jason) of Skaneateles, NY, and Ashley Fey (husband Eric) of Telluride, CO; his grandchildren, Drew Davis, Ella Davis, and Bode Fey; his sister, Luana Robinson of Camillus, NY, and twin brother, Steven D. Davis, DVM, of Pembrooke Pines, FL; and all his animals. He was preceded in death by his beloved son, Keith Davis (Skaneateles, NY), and his sister, Linda Underwood (Endwell, NY). Calling hours will be held from 4 to 6 p.m., Friday, November 1, 2024 at Michael E. Brown Funeral Services, 2333 Fenner Road in Cazenovia.
