Only one dead body ever spooked Davis Moulden, and that's saying something. Moulden sees death on a daily basis as one of the owners of the family business, Davis Funeral Chapel in Leavenworth.
Now 71, he got into the business at age 16 helping his father and mother. He's the fifth generation in the business.
Moulden's great-great-grandfather, J.B. Davis, started burying people in 1855, about six years before Kansas became a state, which makes Davis Funeral Chapel the oldest business still operating in the state or, at the very least, one of the oldest.
He runs the business with his wife, Debbie (LHS Class of 1966), and their daughter, Hope Hundley (LHS Class of 1987).
