When I met Mr. Davidson it was as though I had known him all my life. I told him "I am in awe of you, you look wonderful". (especially since he was so close to death in the hospital). He looked at me and smiled and said "I am in awe of you too". What a wonderful personality he had. To me he did not look sick at all. He came in (my husband and I were at Dots house) with his beautiful daughter Jan and her husband walking and smiling. The love that I felt between Dot and Hoyle was amazing. Cheryl Ellenburg (Jacksonville, FL) see u in heaven
