MICHAEL V. DAVIS Age 26, of Manor passed away Wednesday, June 24, 2020. He was born July 3, 1993 in Monroeville, a son of Mike and Linda Davis. He attended California University where he made lots of friends and started working in landscaping. He was preceded in death by his grandfather, James Comunale. In addition to his parents, he is survived by his brother, Jonathan Davis; sister, Emily (Anthony) Runco; grandparents, Bernadette Comunale, J. Keith (Diana) Davis; Mary Ruth (Ward) Kelsey; numerous aunts, uncles, and relatives as well as special friends Dave, Ashley, Nicole, CJ, and Alexandra. Michael had an inherent idealism and eternal optimism that fueled his zest for life. He spread this zest to everyone he met. Addiction ended Michael's life but his light will shine forever. Michael was “just a guy trying to make the world a better place,” as his Facebook biography reads. Everyone who knew him would agree that phrase is fitting. After years of struggle, Michael lost his battle with addiction. Throughout his war, he never let it define him. His goal was always to help people through difficult times. Michael was the type of person to go out of his way just to make someone smile. He was beaming with positivity and was determined to be the best version he could be. He enjoyed a variety of things such as watching sports, learning to play guitar, hanging out with friends and family, and listening to music - especially (the band) Dance Gavin Dance. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, please call 1-800-662-4357 or visit https://www.samhsa.gov. It is okay to get help, and you are not alone. Everyone will gather Monday for visitation from 11 a.m. till time of funeral service at noon at the Christian Life Church in Trafford. Private interment will follow.

MARCIA (WILSON) COLLINS Age 94, died peacefully on Wednesday, June 24, 2020. Born on January 30, 1926, she was known to most everyone by her nickname, Mish. She attended the Agnes Irwin School, and met her husband-to-be when she was a bridesmaid and he the last-minute-fill-in groomsman at a wedding. Together with her husband of 57 years, Frank Rives Berryman (Berry) Collins, she was the co-proprietor of The Red Sleigh, a children's clothing store where she was known for greeting her customers by name. Friendly and outgoing, Mish had a gift for starting conversations with perfect strangers and for making friends along the way. She never met a dog she didn't like, and fostered kittens even late in her life. She was much loved by her three sons, Rives, Fraser, and Barney Collins, and their spouses Kirsty, Kim, and Rachel. She will be especially missed by her six grandchildren, Caitlin, Ethan, Norris, Ridley, Rachael, and Grace who adored spending time with her. She had a fondness for jigsaw puzzles (though her family suspects she occasionally beat them with a mallet), for singing with friends, for eating good food slowly, for movies with happy endings, for feeding wild birds, and especially, for time with her grandchildren, watching them grow from feisty toddlers to fascinating young adults. Services were private and entrusted to WEDDELL-AJAK FUNERAL HOME, Aspinwall.
