Joshua Davis Jr. was born in San Diego, California on May 5,1974 to Helen King and Joshua Davis Sr. He was the first of three children born to the couple.

As an infant, his Grandma Velma gave him the nickname "Uncle" that he went by for his entire life. As a child, "Uncle" attended Longfellow Elementary School where he studied Spanish. He graduated from Garfield High School in 1992, worked for a time at the San Diego Zoo and then as a dietary aide at Alvarado Convalescent Hospital for seven years. He enjoyed making paper hats for kids and families and travelled around the country doing what he loved. "Uncle" was passionate about football and always encouraged his son DeShawn to be the best he could be in sports.

Joshua was preceded in death by his Mother, Helen King. He leaves to cherish his memory his life partner- Monica Korn and their three children Lashanay; Lauren and DeShawn Davis. Sisters Tamaisha Davis and Keniya Davis; Brother Nathan Davis, and Father, Joshua Davis Sr. and a host of aunts; uncles; nieces, nephews; cousins and friends.

In remembering Uncle, we ask that your hearts be filled with joy and peace, that you celebrate the life he lived, and remember him with love.

"Although we didn?t see each other often, whenever we saw each other we always greeted with a hearty ?Hey Cousin!? and a great big hug. Uncle was a kindred spirit that is gone too soon. Although he?ll be missed he will NEVER be forgotten. Rest In Peace lil? cousin! Your cousin Janice"
