Dale Davis is being remembered as a person with a huge impact on Emporia following his death this past weekend. Noting his time on the Emporia City Commission, Regional Development Association of East Central Kansas and Emporia Enterprises, Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Jeanine McKenna says Davis did his best to help Emporia grow and thrive. Among his many honors, Davis’ contributions led to the Emporia Area Chamber of Commerce bestowing its Lifetime Achievement Award on him in 2015, and the Kansas Chamber gave Davis its Ad Astra Award. Dale and his wife, Carolyn, earned the zoo’s Lifetime Advocate Award last year.
