Oscar Gilbert Davis

He passed from this life on September 22, 2024, at his home in Yukon, Oklahoma, at the age of 62. Gil attended High school in Del City, Oklahoma.

Gil met the love of his life, Tracy Brinkley, and they were soon wed on June 8, 1996, in Moore, Oklahoma. From this union they welcomed two sons, Colton and Gavin. Gil was also the proud bonus dad of Keith and Mackenzie. Gil also adored his ferocious, challenging, Maltese fur baby, Captain. When Gil wasn’t watching Street Outlaws, or his real true love, the OU Sooners, he could be heard singing to the Lord. He was a talented singer and doing so brought him great joy. For many years, Gil was the soundman for the various churches he attended. Joined by his wife, Tracy, Gil was an unwavering member of Empowered church in Mustang, Oklahoma. He was baptized in Jesus Name on June 28, 1977, and received the baptism of the Holy Ghost on July 26, 1981. He was a member of the United Pentecostal Church all his life.
