John Davis (Coffee Time with John and Momma) Memorial Service – Momma Breakdown In Tears

The memorial service for John Dwayne “John” Davis, beloved co-host of the popular online program Coffee Time with John and Momma, was marked by profound sorrow, heartfelt tributes, and an outpouring of support from a community that had grown to love him over the years. Held on Saturday, June 13, 2026, at Harp Funeral Home Chapel in Jellico, Tennessee, the service brought together family members, friends, church leaders, and countless supporters who gathered to honor the life of a man whose daily conversations touched hundreds of thousands of people.

For many attendees, the most emotional moment came when Francis Davis, affectionately known as “Momma” to viewers around the world, broke down in tears during the ceremony. It was a heartbreaking reminder of the immense loss she has suffered. For years, John and his mother had shared a simple yet powerful morning routine that became the foundation of their online success. Together, they sat side by side over coffee, discussing faith, family, life lessons, and everyday experiences. What began as a humble conversation between a mother and son eventually evolved into a cherished tradition followed by more than 200,000 loyal viewers.

Now, for the first time in years, Momma faced the reality of sitting without her son beside her.

John Davis passed away on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at his home in Jellico. He was 55 years old. His passing sent shockwaves through the online community that had welcomed him into their homes each morning. While many viewers never met him in person, they felt connected to him through the warmth, sincerity, and authenticity that defined Coffee Time with John and Momma.

The visitation, held from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. before the service, drew a steady stream of visitors. Neighbors, church members, longtime friends, and supporters came to pay their respects and offer comfort to the Davis family. Many shared stories of how John’s kindness, faith, and positive outlook had impacted their lives.

The memorial service was officiated by three pastors who knew John personally: Reverend Mike Douglas, Reverend James Hackler, and Reverend Mark Stanley. Their remarks painted a picture of a man deeply committed to his faith, his family, and his church. John was a devoted member of Asigo Missionary Baptist Church, where he worshipped faithfully and actively participated in church life. Those who knew him best emphasized that his Christian faith was not merely something he discussed online—it was a conviction that guided his actions every day.

As family members listened to tributes and memories, emotions filled the chapel. At one point, Momma became overwhelmed with grief. Her tears reflected not only the loss of a son but also the loss of a daily companion, a trusted friend, and a partner in a journey that had brought joy to countless people. No one attempted to interrupt the moment. Instead, those gathered simply surrounded her with compassion and support.

The congregation understood the depth of her pain. For years, viewers had watched the unique bond between John and Momma unfold on screen. Their conversations felt less like a broadcast and more like an invitation into their home. Many followers often remarked that watching the show felt like sitting on a front porch with old friends, sharing coffee and conversation.

That sense of connection extended far beyond Tennessee. While the chapel was filled with mourners, thousands more watched online and shared messages of sympathy from across the United States. Supporters from states including Montana, Georgia, California, and many others expressed their condolences through social media and livestream comments.

One message, shared repeatedly in the days following John’s death, captured the feelings of many viewers: “You both made me feel like I could have walked up to your door, sat down, drank coffee with you, and just talked.” It was a testament to the welcoming atmosphere that John and Momma created each day and the genuine relationships they built with their audience.

Following the service, burial took place at Douglas Cemetery in the Wooldridge community of Jellico. Family members and close friends gathered at the graveside to say their final goodbyes. Among those present was John’s niece, Heather Leach, who was described in the obituary as being “like a daughter” to him. Extended family members, cousins, and lifelong friends also attended, standing together in support of one another during a difficult farewell.

In lieu of flowers, the Davis family requested that memorial donations be made to Asigo Missionary Baptist Church, reflecting the central role faith played in John’s life. The church served as a spiritual home for John and remained an important part of the values he shared with viewers every morning.

As tributes continue to pour in, many supporters are remembering not only the larger moments of John’s life but also the simple daily routines that made him special. The morning coffee. The devotional readings. The prayers. The laughter. These ordinary moments became extraordinary because they were shared with sincerity and love.

John Dwayne Davis was born on March 29, 1971, and passed away on June 10, 2026. He leaves behind a grieving family, a devoted church community, and an audience that considered him a friend. While the chair beside Momma may now be empty, the impact John made on those who knew him—and on those who watched him each morning—will continue to endure.

His legacy lives on in the memories, conversations, and faith-filled messages he shared throughout his life. For the many people whose mornings were brightened by his presence, John Davis will not soon be forgotten.
