Inez Clara Davis Molock

AIREYS - Inez Clara Davis Molock, 87, passed away on Thursday, April 5, 2007, at the Mallard Bay Care Center in Cambridge.

She was born Dec. 19, 1919, in Vienna, daughter of the late Hattie Nutter and Edgar Davis. Inez grew up on a small farm in the Vienna community and was educated in Dorchester County public schools.

She was married to Russell Edward Molock for 51 years. Together, they maintained a community store in Aireys, operated a small farm and other various businesses. During this time she became a member of Christ United Methodist Church. Mr. Molock preceded her in death.

Mrs. Molock was employed as a factory worker at different locations until her retirement; but her true calling was being a housewife and homemaker who enjoyed entertaining and cooking for others. Spending time with family and friends was her pride and joy. Her house was a home away from home when family from out of town came to visit. She had a passion for reading, reciting and memorizing poetry.

In July 2002, after her health began to fail, she resided at Mallard Bay Care Center in Cambridge. During that time she developed a special friendship with her roommate Geneva Burton.

Mrs. Molock is survived by three children, Constance A. Jiles (Clifford), Fulton Albert Davis (Mary), both of Cambridge, Marion Fisher of Aireys and Charlene Cephas of Cambridge, who was like a daughter; two sisters, Ruth Davis Braxton of Cambridge and Emma Molock (Benjamin Franklin) of Aireys; two sisters-in-law, Nicie Davis of Aireys and Agnes Davis of Salem; eight grandchildren, Jo Ann Jiles Perry, Kim Davis, Monica Thomas Hill, Melanie L. Thomas, Clifford Jiles Jr., Michael Jiles, Fulton Davis Jr. and Jerome Jiles; 11 great-grandchildren; four great-great-grandchildren and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

In addition to her husband, a son, Emerson Molock; four sisters, Mildred Young, Nellie Ennels, Wilsie Evans and Lula Cornish; five brothers, Leon, Albert, Luther, Vernon and Clidel Davis preceded her in death.

Going home services will be held at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, at Christ UM Church at Aireys. Burial will follow in Aireys Cemetery.

The family will receive friends tonight from 6 to 8 at Henry Funeral Home, PA in Cambridge.
