Bryan “Bubba” Cory-Lee D’Avy, age 17, of Florence, MS passed from this life on Friday, September 2, 2022, at Simpson General Hospital in Mendenhall, MS. He was born on September 8, 2004, to Gloria Hall and Joey D’Avy in Flowood, MS.
When he was five years old his mother married Michael Scott Taylor, who very lovingly and proudly became his daddy.
To know Bubba was to love him. If you knew him, you knew that he was the most caring, friendly and respectful person there was. His smile and laugh were infectious. He loved his family more than anything and that family extended to his closest friends especially “6ix”, his best friend, but also a brother he never had. He admired and looked up to “6ix” greatly.
He enjoyed playing basketball, throwing the football with his little brother, Bentley, playing Madden and 2K on his x-box, but mainly spending time with his family and friends.
Bubba was preceded in death by his uncle, Jermaine Smith and cousin, Fredrick Smith and Papaw Jr. Taylor.
