The Story
- Fast Facts: Al Davis married the former Carol Segal in 1954, and the two were married until his death from prostate cancer on the morning of October 8, 2011. They have one child together, son Marc; who along with his mother Carol, are the direct heir's to Al Davis' fortune and presumably the Raiders team.
Most folks reading this know of Davis' cold public demeanor, where he was never shy to speak candidly with no concern for any possible public humiliation of his target. However, the Pittsburgh Post Gazette passed along this interesting tidbit on the long time Raiders owner in today's obituary.
When his wife, Carol, had a serious heart attack, he moved into her hospital room and lived there for more than a month. And when he hears that even a distant acquaintance is ill, he'll offer medical help without worrying about expense."
Reports are currently circulating that the succession plan has always been, and will be that Marc is to take over day to day ownership operations of the team.

Dose anyone happen to see how well Mr Davis has shielded his family form the pulic's eye. You know nothing about Carol or Mark Davis,
Let's start with Carol Segal Davis the name SEGAL show bring up a place to start and the begining of the Davis fortue starts there. She came from money and thats how he bought into the raiders to begin with. Mark again knowone knows anything about the son and that's because Al made Damn sure know found out about MaRKS PROBLEMS and there were in the past trouble with the son of the Raiders you just never heard about because that's the way Al wanted it. you have to follow the woman and they'll tell the tail about Mark. that's all I would say for now the rest well maybe I'll save for my book \
