Dear all, with great sadness we share with you the news that Betty Mabry Davis, after a brief illness, has transitioned into another space. She passed today in Pittsburgh - peacefully and with those who loved her by her side. Betty remained Queen Betty until the end - independent, fierce and beautiful. She left just as she came, on her own terms, burning bright and forging her path into the next world in the way she wanted. Her legacy is all around us. For those who wish to honor Betty’s life - we will announce more soon. Love / Phil, Damon & Giovanna
