Gloria Davis Teal

Cheraw, SC

          Ms. Gloria Davis Teal, age 77, passed away on Monday, January 12, 2025 at Mcleod Regional Medical Center of Florence. A celebration of life memorial service will be announced at a later date.

          Ms. Teal was born on May 16, 1948 in Georgetown, South Carolina. She was a daughter of the late James Franklin and Azilee Brewington Davis. Known for her outgoing personality, Gloria was a people person, although not a people pleaser; she loved to smile and laugh-even sometimes at the expense of others! Gloria enjoyed music and dancing, and spending time with her feline companion, “Austin”. She was a proud property manager, having completed her business certificate and passing rigorous licensure examinations.

          In addition to her parents, Ms. Teal was preceded in death by a daughter, Yolandra Davis; and brother, James Charles Davis.

          Survivors include her daughter, Melissa Teal of Charlotte, NC; sister, Cynthia (Ronnie) Maxwell of Cheraw, SC; sister of the heart, Rosa Gomez; niece, Melonie (Chris) Tarlton of Mt. Croghan, SC; nephew, Lee (Amy) Maxwell of Florence, SC; and several cousins.

          The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to the doctors, nurses, staff and techs of Mcleod Health-Cheraw and Mcleod Regional Medical Center of Florence, for their exceptional care and support. A special appreciation is for nurses Gracie and Anna Bella for your kindness in going above and beyond.

          Memorial contributions may be made in Ms. Teal’s memory to the Mcleod Health Foundation, PO Box 100551/ 800 East Cheves Street, Suite 150; Florence, SC 29502-0551.
