Gladys Davis celebrated her 20th birthday a little bit early on Saturday, Feb. 25. Her 80th birthday actually happens on Wednesday, Feb. 29.

“We always teased her that she didn’t have a birthday but every four years,” her sister Easter Mae Barfield said. “Mama used to tease her and say that she was born with her little teeth in her mouth.”

Employed in the cafeteria at Madison Middle School, Barfield said Davis loved to cook.

Davis had a daughter, Vivian Jackson, who died, and a son, Lonnie Davis, of Atlanta, Ga. She also had a sister, Classy Branch.

Greene Publishing, Inc. wishes Gladys Davis a happy 20th – er, 80th birthday.
