Jill Davis has always called Helena home, while her husband, Michael, is originally from Enterprise. The two met at First Baptist Church Pelham in 2005, got married six months later and have lived in Helena ever since.

As the librarian at Helena Intermediate School, Jill is the librarian at Helena Intermediate School. In addition to hosting a monthly after-school book club for her students, Jill serves as a board member for the Helena Belles and a uniform chaperone for the HHS band.

When Michael isn’t working as Senior Marketing Communications Specialist for BlueCross BlueShield of Alabama, he volunteers as the concession stand coordinator for the HHS band.

Their eldest daughter, Emma (16), is a Helena Belle, clarinet section leader and principal clarinetist for the HHS band Wind Ensemble. She also serves on the HHS Student Leadership team. Their youngest daughter, Sophie (13) is a marching eighth grader with the HHS band and is also in the middle school advanced band.

The family has three pets, their 8-year-old basset hound, Rosie, and two guinea pigs, Alberto and Bruno.

Together, the Davis family enjoys traveling to faraway places such as Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, as well as staying local and attending Helena events such as the Buck Creek Festival and the Christmas parade.

“We have loved raising our family in this area and are happy to call Helena ‘home,’” Jill said. “We love the small town feel and the huge hearts of the people in Helena.”
