Nathel Davis, 87, passed away surrounded by loved ones on the evening of January 30, 2024. Nathel, born February 25, 1936, was the daughter of wonderful parents, Osborne Lester Hutchinson and Leola Done Hutchinson. She had one sister, Patricia Burchfield, whom she adored. Nathel was a darling girl who loved socializing, dancing and music. She was a member of the student council and marching Rabettes drill team at Mesa High School. She loved dances at the Mezona and learned to play the organ in the old Tabernacle on Temple Square. Nathel graduated from Brigham Young University in 1957 with a degree in Secondary Education. She accepted a position at Mesa High School teaching typing and shorthand. She also attracted the eye of a certain drama and speech teacher, Jack Davis, who soon became her husband and the love of her life. Nathel and Jack were married December 23, 1957 and had six children: Stephanie Victoria Romney (Bill), Jeffrey Kent Davis (Lora), Eric Cameron Davis (Molly), Daren Troy Davis (Lindsay), Kyle Aaron Davis (deceased), and Heather Lynne Kelleher (Sean). Nathel enjoyed 52 years of blissful marriage before her husband’s passing in August 2010. Nathel is survived by 5 children, 23 grandchildren, and 33 great grandchildren. We couldn’t have asked for a more dear mother and grandmother. We miss her already.
