A great deal of sorrow is being felt throughout the North Georgia baseball league as a result of the passing of a coach who passed away while the squad was playing on the field. During the time that the squad was competing, the coach passed away, which is the reason for this situation. For a lengthy amount of time, spanning numerous years, the coach had been an essential component of the league over the course of his career. The competition known as the “Shamrock Classic” that took place in Emerson on Friday was the event that catapulted Canes Sports Performance to the forefront of the media’s attention. The location of the competition was Emerson, which served as the venue. It was at the time that the 14U class was in session that the announcement was made public.
When Coach Doug Davis was already out on the field, he suddenly lost consciousness and passed out. This occurred at that same moment. Davis had a serious heart attack, according to the information that was provided by Coach Jeff Owens. Davis passed away during the process. The information in question has been made public. Even though Owens acknowledged that Davis had departed the area, he did not provide any other information on whether Davis had passed away as a result of the fall that he sustained on the baseball field. He did not reveal any additional information. The occurrence had led to Davis sustaining injuries as a consequence.
At the time that it took place, which was almost soon after it had taken place, along with the other coaches, made a beeline toward Doug. This was something that I was one of the early participants in. The information that Owens provided to Channel 2 Action News was that “nurses and doctors came out of the stands onto the field with their patients.” Owens phoned the station with this information. This information was included in the report that was written. The report indicates that Owens was the one who was responsible for delivering it. Without a sure, it is without a doubt one of the most embarrassing situations that has been forced to go through.
There is no doubt about that. Concerning this matter, there is no disagreement. Regarding it, there is no place for uncertainty or uncertainty. The doors are going to be unlocked at eleven o’clock in the morning. This is the approximate time when they will be unlocked. Since Ervin Funeral Chapel is going to be in charge of everything, they are going to be the ones to follow out the direction that has been given to them. The general public will not be allowed to attend any viewings, as this has been decided upon by all parties involved. This constitutes the decision as being final. The passing of Coach Davis occurred on Sunday at the area where the Oxford Diversicare organization is headquartered.
The day that was mentioned above was the day that he passed away. Among his survivors are his children, Jeronda Burley (Ernest) of Odenton, Maryland, Brandi Arnold (Zeno) of Jacksonville, Alabama, and Douglas, Jr. of Atlanta, Georgia; his former spouse, Jacqueline Davis, of Mobile, Alabama; his grandchildren Christopher Davis, Naomi, and Earnest Burley III, as well as Destiny Arnold; his sister, JoAnn Goodman (Gene) of Anniston; his brother, Jesse Davis (Nona) of Lompoc, California; and a large number of nieces, nephews, and cousins. Jesse Davis and Catherine Davis, his parents, had both passed away prior to his birth. He was the only child of the Davis family. Even though they had both departed away, his birth took place not too long before they did. In the same way that they did, he recreates their behaviors in his own way according to his own preferences.
In addition to having spent his entire life up until the present day in Calhoun County, Coach Doug Davis was born and reared in Anniston. He has lived there until the present day. To this day, he continues to call that location his home. It is the only place in his entire life that he has ever considered to be his home.

In 2004, he took his retirement. 2004 was the year when he decided to retire. It was in the year 2004 that he made the decision to retire.
