David Davidson

I was a member of Dallas Symphony Chorus for several years and found Mr. Davidson to be a kind, gracious and incredibly talented gentleman. While in the chorus, both of my parents died, six hours apart. Mr. Davidson took time out of his busy schedule to write an encouraging and loving note, sympathetic, acknowledging grief and yet encouraging me to rise above it and trust in God's perfect plan. I have never forgotten his grace and wisdom- filled kindness. I can only imagine the music he...

My family has enjoyed his talent with the Christmas programs for several years. The shows were always wonderful. He was a pleasure to watch. You could tellhe loved what he did. His smile said it all. Even last year when he was sick, he had a huge smile during the show. David will be greatly missed by his family and all of us that enjoyed his love of music. Heaven, however, gained a new angel that will fill heaven with his smile and his talent. We were all made a little better by him.

I was stunned to hear of David's passing. I took a couple classes from him in July in Tucson at the national handbell director's seminar. I knew he had been sick a couple years ago but thought he had it licked. He seemed so good in July.
I too lost my husband to this dreaded disease in April. My prayers and thoughts are with the family. He will be greatly missed in the handbell world.

I have been out of town and learned today of David's passing during church services where Mark Craig spoke so highly and poignantly of David. Those of us who attend Highland Park United Methodist Church have surely been blessed by David's incredible talent and gifts since he came to our church. He will be sorely missed.... My mother passed away a few months and ago and I know how difficult this time is for all family and friends. My respect and my prayers.

David was a giant in the field of church music. I first met him at a Handbell Festival in 1978 @ Central Michigan University. He was "wow" then and continued to be a great inspiration to all of us his entire life. "Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall have comfort".

Our prayers go out to David's family and friends.

Sending my condolences.

David was the greatest friend anyone could ever have. He and Judi welcomed me like a family member. His influence in my life and in the world will last forever. Give rest, O Christ, to your servant David with your saints, where sorrow and pain are no more, neither sighing, but life everlasting.

David touched the lives of all he knew and his zest for life was incomparable. He will remain in our hearts and in our memories forever. Our prayers are with you and your family.
