Scholarship Opportunity for Students Affiliated with the Roofing Industry
The Davis Memorial Foundation, now in its 23rd year of supporting higher education, was established in memory of Larry and Mary Davis. Larry was an integral part of the roofing industry for many years serving on several roofing industry association boards which included the RCA of California and the Western States Roofing Contractors Association.
Larry and his wife Mary perished in a 1995 airplane accident near their home in Modesto while returning from a WSRCA Board meeting. This fund was established to honor their support for industry education.
