Judy Ann Coke, a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away at her home in Oklahoma City on March 30, 2025, at the age of 70.

Born on July 8, 1954, in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Judy was a vibrant spirit whose warmth and kindness touched the lives of everyone around her.

Judy was preceded in death by her dear parents, James G. Jr. and Dorothy Coke, her Uncle Winans Lee Coke and her former husband, Philip Davis, with whom she raised their family.

She is survived by her children, daughter Jamie Davis Gates and son Joey Davis and his wife Laurie.

Judy's love for her family extended into the next generation, as she leaves behind many loved grandchildren: Michael Gates and his wife Darian, Dorian Gates and her daughter Lorelai, James and Victoria Gates, Lily Davis Egelston and her husband Alex, as well as Benjamin, Oliver, Marigold, Peter, Apple Blossom, and Jasmine Davis. To them she will forever be their cherished Mamaw. She is also survived by many beloved aunts, uncles and cousins in Mississippi.

Judy was also known for her deep love of animals, caring for many cats throughout her life, and even taking in a few raccoons along the way.  Her nurturing spirit extended to her beautiful garden, where she loved tending to her flowers, creating a place of peace for herself.

In her early years, she enjoyed painting and expressing herself through art. She was also a talented musician, singer and lyricist with an amazing creativity in all things she put her mind and hands to.

Most importantly Judy was a firm believer in Christ and found solace and strength in her faith, spending cherished moments with her Bible. She always wished for others to be blessed.

Her home was always open to family and friends. Judy had a unique ability to make everyone feel welcome, and her friends and extended family were numerous, each one touched by her generous heart.

She cultivated relationships that spanned decades, and her impact on those around her will be felt for generations to come.

A celebration of Judy's life will be held at Harvest Hills Baptist Church, located at 9713 N County Line Rd., Yukon, OK 73099, on May 3, 2025, at 11:00 AM.

Family and friends are invited to remember and honor Judy's life, sharing in the love and joy her life gave.

As we say goodbye to Judy Ann Coke, we remember her not just for the years she lived but for the love she shared and the lives she touched.

May her spirit continue to inspire us to love fiercely and care deeply, just as she did. You will be forever missed and always remembered.
