NAPLES, Fla. --- Rep. Mike Davis, the Naples Republican who authored Florida's affordable housing legislation and served as affordable housing's most prominent voice in the Fla. legislature, passed away this morning.

 

The family plans Mass at 11 a.m. Saturday, Saint Elizabeth Seton Catholic Church, 5225 Golden Gate Pkwy, Naples. A reception will follow at Vineyards Country Club, 400 Vineyards Blvd., Naples.

An anonymous poster at the St. Petersburg Times left this tribute, the best we've seen so far:

 

If you looked at issues and based your judgements on the question, "What would Mike Davis do?" you would serve your constituents and colleagues with honor and dignity.
