Gotta Have a System
George Davis Honors His Grandfather, Fred Davis
Episode Overview
Some lessons arrive as advice. Others are simply absorbed over time — through the words, habits and example of someone we love.
George Davis joins Legacy Stories to honor his grandfather, Fred Russell Davis, whose practical wisdom left an imprint George would come to understand more fully as the years passed.
Their story is a reminder that influence isn't always obvious in the moment. Sometimes it takes looking back to recognize just how much of another person's character, faith and way of approaching life we've carried forward with us.
