Sammy Davis Sr. and Elvera Sanchez Davis were Sammy Davis Jr.'s parents. The couple split up when Jr. was only 3. Sr. got custody and took Jr. on tour. The two Davis's joined with Will Mastin to become the Will Mastin Trio. In a strange coincidence, both Sr. and Jr. were born in December and both died in May... barely two years apart. Jr. died in 1988 and Sr. died in 1990. Sammy Davis Jr. was Sammy Davis Sr.'s only child.
