Warren grew to learn that something special was Davis’ heart of gold. It is why Warren has brought Davis with him through his winding and interesting career.
“She is everything that you could hope for in a friend, a colleague, an advisor,” Warren said. “I listen to her. I know she truly wants the best for me and my family. She is always there and she is straight, blunt. I mean, we do not agree on everything, but she will tell me what she thinks and how she feels.
“She has an impeccable character, integrity. Honestly, she has absolutely changed my life. I would not be sitting here today without her. What she has done for me, my family — I can never repay her.”
Davis is even partially to credit for Warren meeting his wife, Greta. When Warren was just starting out at Linde Thomson, he knew his mother would soon call him and ask if he had found a church to attend. So, he asked Davis for a local’s recommendation. She referred him to St. James United Methodist Church.
“That is the church I went to based upon Mai’s recommendation and that is where I met Greta,” Warren shared. “We met there. And when we had both of our kids, Peri and Powers, the only people who were in the birthing room with us were Greta’s mom, my mom and Mai.”
