Ms. Davis died in Olympia, Washington, where she was visiting her daughters. She was 53. Born in Palo Alto, the daughter of the late John and Betty Grass, Ms. Davis graduated from Woodside High School in 1975.

Davis of Olympia, Washington; brothers Bill Grass of Portola Valley and Jim Grass of Santa Clara; and sisters Judy Grass and Bonnie Grass, both of Menlo Park.
