Clinton George Davis, from Waverly, New York passed away peacefully in his sleep on Saturday morning, March 14, 2026 at the age of 98. He was born on December 7, 1927, in Chemung, New York to Franklin Lorenzo Davis and Doris Vera Mae Blandin(g).
Clinton was preceded in death by his parents, Frank Davis (1927) and Doris Vera Mae Blandin(g) Davis Yetman (1959); by his step-father, Ralph “Tabby” Yetman (1988), by his elder brothers, Bert Carl (2002), Raymond (2014), Richard “Dick” (1955); by his elder sisters, Elizabeth Lucille “Betty” (2011), Doris (1960), Helen “Idalene” (2018); and his wife of 72 years, Elissa Miller (2024).
Like his three older brothers, Clinton went int the service at age 18. He served in the Army of the United States as a Private, 788th Ordinance Light Maintenance Company. In January 1946, at the Ordinance School, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD, he earned a Certificate of Proficiency for special diesel mechanics. Also, at the training base, he was trained to operate fire-fighting equipment, perform rescues, and handle base-fire protection duties to qualify as a Fire Fighter 383. He also qualified at the Expert (highest) level weapons qualification for the standard U.S. Army service rifle in 1946, the M1 Garand. He was stationed in Italy for one year with the On-Post Fire Department. He was honorably discharged on July 10, 1947, for the honest and faithful service, received a gratitude letter from President Harry S. Truman, and earned two medals: World War II Victory Medal, and Army of Occupation Medal.
Prior to serving in the Army, Clinton operated a small truck in and around a storehouse transporting freight from one department to another and to the Lehigh Valley Railroad cars in Sayre, PA. After his discharge from the Army, he was a manual laborer and worked as a machinist (cutting tool/machine parts) for most of his lifetime employed. For the first seven years of his marriage to Elissa, he worked at the Blue Swan Mills, Sayre, PA, in shipping & receiving. His learned skill of wrapping packages “correctly” was later passed on to his older daughter. Then a household move to Elmira, NY provided an easier commute to Sperry Rand Corp, in Elmira Heights for about six years. However, company lay-offs became a challenge along with short-term employment at Eclipse Machine Co. in Elmira Heights NY, Smith Corona in Cortland NY and Morse Chain Co in Ithaca NY, in 1966, he returned to Lehigh Valley area to work at Ingersoll Rand, Athens, PA. Although he eventually retired from Ingersoll Rand in 1994, the years in between were fraught with company layoffs and strikes. Consequently, he acquired some part-time work and some long-term work during the absences from Ingersoll Rand at Cash-Credit Appliances Co, Sayre, PA Valley Creamery in South Waverly, Charles Schreck Inc, “Fine Furniture & Carpeting” in Waverly, NY, Ted Clark’s Busy Market in Waverly and I.B.M. in Owego, NY.
In the latter half of his life, he attended some Lehigh Valley-area churches. He was affectionally known as “Brother Davis” by his church family. First, he was active in the Capital Assembly in Waverly, where he served as an usher, a Sunday School teacher, and loved to sing in the choir. Then he attended the Church on the Hill in Milian PA, most recently he attended the Greater Valley Assembly of God in Athens, PA.
Clinton was a devoted husband, father and grandfather. He is survived by his two daughters, Kim Gildersleeve (Henry), Summer Maenza (Philip Jr); and his son, Brian Davis.
He is also survived by his six grandchildren, Philip Maenza III, Caleb Maenza (Alexis), Anna Grace Maenza, Seth Davis and Luke Davis. He also leaves behind nieces, nephews and special friends who celebrate his life and mourn his passing.
A memorial service is currently planned on Saturday, May 16, 2026 at 2:00 PM at Greater Valley Assembly of God in Athens, PA.
The family is being assisted by the Blauvelt Funeral Home, 625 Broad Street, Waverly, New York. Those wishing to send a message of sympathy to Clinton’s family may visit our page or at www.blauveltfuneralhome.com

Virginia K. Williams, 74, of Sayre passed away on Sunday, March 15, 2026 at the Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre, PA.
Today we gather to celebrate the life of Virginia Williams—a woman whose presence brought warmth, laughter, and strength to everyone who knew her. Though it is difficult to say goodbye, we come together to remember the love she shared and the many lives she touched.
At the center of Virginia’s life was her family and the deep love she shared with her husband, George Williams. For 43 years, George was her constant companion and the love of her life. Their life together was built on devotion, partnership, and countless shared memories. Through every season of life, they stood side by side, supporting one another and creating a home filled with love.
Virginia was a devoted and loving mother who took great pride in her children: Karen Lane, and her husband Bill Lane; Lori Bentley, and her husband Ernie Bentley; and John Belles, and his wife Cori Belles. She cherished each of them and was proud of the families they built.
Family meant everything to Virginia. She shared lifelong bonds with her siblings—Linda Webster, Terry Baker and her husband Leroy VanDoren, Carol Brown and her husband Jim Brown, and her brothers Steve Webster and Rick Webster, along with Rick’s wife Debbie Webster. The love and memories they shared over the years helped shape the person Virginia became.
Virginia was welcomed into heaven by those who went before her: her parents Robert and Violet Webster, Bucky and Dorothy Williams, and her beloved sisters Gale Haggerty and Pamela Gleason. Though they left this world before her, their love remained part of her life always.
One of Virginia’s greatest joys was her growing family. She loved her 10 grandchildren and 17 great-grandchildren dearly. They brought her immense pride and happiness, and she treasured every moment she spent with them.
Virginia was also well known for her spirited attendance at the sporting events of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. If there was a game, a match, or a competition, chances were Virginia was in the stands. And you could always tell where she was sitting. Her voice could often be heard above the crowd as she cheered on the players, sometimes even leading the cheerleaders, and proudly ringing her cowbell in support. Her enthusiasm and encouragement made those moments even more special for the children she loved so much.
Virginia also had a special place in her heart for her beloved dogs, Violet. And also Daisy, who have since passed but were cherished companions in her life.
Those who knew Virginia knew she had a zest for life. She loved camping, enjoying the outdoors and the time spent with family and friends around a campsite. She also had a passion for cleaning, taking pride in making everything around her neat and welcoming. Her home was always a place where people felt comfortable and cared for.
Virginia was often referred to as the life of the party. Her laughter, energy, and vibrant spirit could brighten any room. She had a way of making people feel at ease, and her presence was something others naturally gravitated toward.
But perhaps what people will remember most about Virginia was her heart. If someone was in need, she was the one who would show up. Whether it was lending a hand, offering comfort, or simply being there, Virginia was someone people could count on. She didn’t just talk about caring—she lived it.
While we mourn her loss today, we also celebrate a life well lived—one full of love, family, laughter, and generosity. The legacy Virginia leaves behind lives on through George, her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, siblings, and all those who had the privilege of knowing her.
Her laughter, kindness, and unwavering love will continue to echo through the lives she touched. And in honoring Virginia Williams, may we remember to show up for one another the way she always did—with warmth, compassion, and an open heart.
A time of visitation will be held on Wednesday, March 18, 2026 from 12 to 2 PM at the Blauvelt Funeral Home, 625 Broad Street, Waverly, New York. A memorial service to honor Virginia’s life will be held on Wednesday, March 18, 2026 at 2:00 PM at the Blauvelt Funeral Home, 625 Broad Street, Waverly, New York. For those unable to attend the services, we will Live Stream the services at 2:00 PM at www.blauveltfuneralhome.com.

Leo J. Po***ck, 83 of Sayre passed away on Tuesday, March 10, 2026 at Sayre Health Care in Sayre, Pennsylvania surround by his loving family.
He was predeceased by his parents, Leo John and Helen Po***ck; his wife, Suzanne M. Po***ck; his brother, Paul Po***ck; and his sister, Ramona Malick.

He earned his Masters from University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and worked at Robert Packer Hospital in Sayre for many years. He taught Respiratory Therapy at Elmira College till they discontinued the program. He went on to retire in 2009 from St. Joseph’s Hospital in Elmira after 38 years. He was a member of St. Joes Catholic Church in Athens until its closing. He enjoyed his daily walks and target practice. Leo and Suzanne were snowbirds for many years traveling back and forth to St. Petersburg, FL. Leo enjoyed working in his father's garage with his handy skills with cars, and that he'd tell us not to throw that wrench after busting your knuckles because it was still needed. Or how he, like his father, didn't ever swear unless ffffffrick is considered a swear word. He was a man of twenty questions, but not for entertainment. His questions were always meant to guide in life and help us reach logical conclusions.
A time of visitation will be held on Monday, March 16, 2026 from 12 to 2 PM at the Blauvelt Funeral Home, 625 Broad Street, Waverly, New York.

MINIELLY-SCHMIEG
Kathleen Jean Minielly-Schmieg, fondly known as Jean, 79, of Waverly, NY, passed away peacefully with her husband, Joseph “Joe” Phillip Schmieg, by her side on March 7th, 2026, at Sayre Health Care Center in Wilawana, PA.
Jean was born on November 6, 1946, in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada to Kathleen Barbara “Barb” (nee Brooks) and Frederick “Fred” Duncan Hannah. She completed her primary and secondary education in Niagara Falls, graduating from Westlane Secondary School before moving to London, Ontario to study nursing. She graduated from Victoria Hospital School of Nursing as a Registered Nurse in 1968, where she stayed on to work in their ICU. She then worked in the Surgical Recovery Room at St. Joseph’s Hospital London before working for the Department of Oral Surgery at the University of Western Ontario, where she ran the oral surgery operating room. She immigrated to the United States with her first husband, Richard, and their two sons in January 1980, to set up roots in Sayre, Pennsylvania at their farmhouse built in 1803 on Litchfield Road. Upon moving to Sayre, she made raising her two sons and restoring their old home her mission. She was very active in numerous volunteer organizations throughout the “Valley”. She served as treasurer of the St. James School Board when her sons attended school there from 1981 until the school’s closing in 1988, serving with fellow community member and friend, Harold “Hal” Lambert. She was also active in Valley Family Planning, the Guthrie Clinic Auxiliary, and the American Red Cross Blood Services, which she later converted to a paid position, winning both regional and national awards for such successful blood drives. She was instrumental in organizing the construction of Valley Playland, and the creation of Carantouan Greenway, as well as being active in both Penn-York Valley Project GROW and the Valley Food Pantry. Additionally, to both her sons’ dismay, she taught health education courses at the three local area high schools. She enjoyed attending her sons’ sporting events and other activities while they attended Waverly High School. Jean loved “The Valley”, which remained her home until her death. Jean is best known for her formidable presence - you never had to wonder where you stood with her or what she thought. She had an incredibly witty sense of humour. She was an avid gardener and was an excellent cook and “super taster”, knowing exactly what ingredient was needed to make the meal just right, even if she simply smelled the food. She had a keen eye for fashion and interior decorating and had a passion for antiquing, often attending the “occasional” Jerry Burke estate auction on weekends. Jean was most proud of her two sons and her many grandchildren.
Jean is survived by her loving husband of over 20 years, Joe, residing at Sayre Memory Care, Sayre, PA, sons Robin (Kayleigh) of Amarillo, TX, and Matthew (Jennifer) of Lehigh Valley, PA, sister Lousie Ann Pedersen (Rob) of Niagara Falls, Ontario, grandchildren Charlotte Kent, Ian, Eva, Sadie, and Cecily Minielly, Makenna and Greyson Minielly, and R***r and Harper McCarrell, the mother of her grandchildren, Rachel Minielly of Lubbock, TX, and several in-laws, cousins, nieces and nephews in both Canada and the US.
Jean was predeceased by both of her parents, and by her grandson, Lance Minielly, of Rochester, NY.
Her remains will be interred at St. James Cemetery, 145 Elm St., Waverly, NY during a public ceremony on Thursday, May 28, 2026, at 2:30PM. Immediately following her interment, the family welcomes the community to attend an open house to celebrate and share in the memory of Jean at St. James Church social hall, 503 Clark St., Waverly, NY, until 6pm. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions can be made to Carantouan Greenway, Penn-York Valley Project GROW, the Valley Food Pantry, the American Red Cross Blood Services, The American Cancer Society, or to another charity of your choice with local impact. The family would be most humbled, if able, if you were to donate blood in her honour at an upcoming American Red Cross Bloodmobile, which was her passion for so many years. Lastly, the family would like to thank the staff at Sayre Health Care Center and acknowledge Jean’s caring and loving friends who were devoted to her until the end: Mary Lou and Jock Gates, Penelope and Marty Borko, Lynn and Mike Noon, Carla and Bob Cohen, and Kim and Steve Downs. The family is being assisted by the Blauvelt Funeral Home, 625 Broad Street, Waverly, New York. Those wishing to share a remembrance of Jean may visit our page or at www.blauveltfuneralhome.com

Born on February 18, 1956, in Sweetsburg, Quebec Canada, Michel was the first of seven children born to Angela (Gagne) Marie Tetreault and Roger Phillip Tetreault. He spent his childhood in Granby, Connecticut where he attended local schools and formed the strong work ethic and steady character that would define his life.
