Gilded Memories: Raymond and Gwendolyn Davis with John and Billie Hatcher

Heritage Committee Highlight:

A lively scene from the 1996 Phoenix Ball under the tent on the Cumberland University lawn, featuring Gwendolyn Ligon Davis and Raymond Davis alongside John and Billie Hatcher. The Hatchers attended in support of their son, Sam, and Teresa Hatcher, who chaired the ball that year. The Hatcher family, longtime owners of a men’s clothing store on the Lebanon Square, were known for keeping Lebanon’s gentlemen impeccably dressed – a tradition Sam proudly continues.
