11/26/2019 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — A 13-year-old boy is accused of stabbing his 56-year-old grandmother to death in St. Petersburg.

The St. Petersburg Police Department said an adult woman, later identified as Gloria Davis, was found dead at the home at 600th block of 60th Ave. S. just after 3:30 a.m. Monday morning. They said her body, which was found in the kitchen area of the home, showed “signs of violence.”

Davis’ neighbors, coworkers and family members told ABC Action News she worked as a long time postal worker for USPS delivering in the Tierra Verde area. They said she lived a quiet life and frequently attended a baptist church.

Coworkers from USPS said Davis did not seem to have any enemies and was always in good spirits. She was expected to report to work on Monday morning but did not show up.

“When we walked in the post office, we could hear her laugh. Her laughter was hearty. If anyone was having a bad day, you could go to her and she’d make you feel good,” Tabitha McNeil explained. “This is gut wrenching. We are all in shock and wondering why. I’ve known her for more than 10 years, and I’ve never seen her mad or upset.”

Gilda Durant, who also worked with Davis, said she was equally puzzled
