Robert M. Davis hopped on his Harley and flew to Heaven on February 12, 2026. Perhaps it was his Husqvarna or ’77 Yamaha. He loved to ride, mostly dirt-bikes. Are there Enduro’s in Heaven? He will seek them out if so. Immediately, Robert was greeted by his Mom & Dad, William J. Davis and Rose Baccino Davis, whom he adored. Wide open arms of Uncle Joe Baccino and Cousin Joey welcomed him too. Aunt Doll and Aunt Toots as well as a multitude of other family and friends were eager for his arrival. Bob’s brother, William J. Davis, (Janice) and sister, Cathy Testerman, (Mike) look forward to someday joining in the festivities of the family reuniting. Bob, as he was known by most, will be back someday to pick up his wife, Kristi, preferably on the Yamaha. Visions and memories of Bob, as well as innovative genes, carry on through his children: Mark Davis (Jennifer), Daniel Davis (Lety), Lyndee Yorek (Coby), Morgan Davis, Rose Davis, and unofficial adopted son, Troy Yorek; and his grandchildren: Albert James Blanchard IV, Adia Blanchard, Sofia Davis, Christian Davis, Alexis Davis, Cecilia Davis, and Liliana Davis.
Bob enjoyed simple summer Saturdays spent running errands, cutting the grass, taking a ride on his bike, and then having a Yuengling. He loved driving his truck on the beach, throwing a pole in the water, and basking in the sun all day. Despite a number of these beach trips, it was usually Grotto’s for dinner rather than fish.
Bob was a problem solver who seemed to be able to figure out how anything worked and fix it if need be. He was curious and loved How It’s Made, documentaries, and other educational shows.
As a young man, Bob played bass guitar in a band and even cut a couple of records. Loving Time was one of their cherished pieces. He was also a natural athlete. Not only did he excel at various sports in school and leagues, he played semi-pro baseball for Canada Dry. Bob’s most treasured activity was enduro riding. Determined, talented, and tenacious, he won several enduro trophies.
Bob’s career began while at Brown Vocational School working as a machinist. He then attended DelTech and also served his country in the Army Reserves during the Vietnam War. Next, he joined the E. I. DuPont Corporation and became a piping designer, which evolved in various promotions and positions. He spent twenty years with DuPont, and then he moved on to various engineering companies working as a Lead Designer, Project Manager, and Office Manager. He most enjoyed life when he ventured into an entrepreneurial spirit and created Copy Cad, a business that assisted chemical companies implement a new OSHA regulation. At work, Bob was a mentor to anyone interested in learning about pipe or work processes. Co-workers will remember him for his bright-eyed cheerful, positive attitude, his ability to spot their unique capabilities, and of course what they learned from him. Eagles, Steelers, Penguin’s, and Flyers conversations would have been plentiful too.
Bob’s family and friends will dearly miss the time spent with him, his ability to fix anything or solve a problem, listening to his childhood stories, his dreams of flying on his motorcycle, and his constant stream of new ideas and possibilities. God has called home a charming, charismatic, and inspirational child who touched and changed so many lives. He helped others see their true potential and inspired their courage to speak their ideas and follow dreams. With love and affection, Bob, you were a dream come true for your wife and for all of us who had the opportunity to know you. Godspeed, our love always.
