My condolences to the Davison family. Bill Davison and I played soccer and hockey together at ORHS and his dad William was a dedicated supporter of the school and its athletic programs. He attended every game and took many pictures at the games that he gave to the players. I still have the photos that he gave to me. Many fond memories.

Dear Jaynie, Bill and Family- I'm so sorry to hear of Dad's passing. What a wonderful man! Sending love and supportto you at this difficult time. xox Sue Prescott Levy

Our deepest condolences to the Davison family. My wife and I have known the Davison's since the late sixties and the fondest memories of Bill, the Franklin theater and his immediate family. He was like a second father to me. We spent time going to his private club, Shy Beaver, in Maine and also frequented many thoroughbred horse racing with him and Jan. He was a wonderful, kind, caring and compassionate person. He shall sorely be missed and will hold a special place in our hearts.

My deepest sympathies to the Davidson family. I went to school with Jayne. May he Rest In Peace and the family keep his memories forever in their heart.

Bill was a Hanover High School friend and classmate of my father. I never had the pleasure of meeting Bill but my father spoke very highly of him. In my father's absence, I wish Bill godspeed on his behalf.

To all of the family,
I had the pleasure of knowing your Mom and Dad as two of my favorite dinner guests at the Acorns restaurant in the New England Center. I still remember their favorite meals and how they always split the meal, no starch, double vegetables. Let's not forget the Chardonnay. They always shared stories with me about all of you and they were so proud. I hope this memory brings you some comfort as you mourn the loss of your Dad. I was blessed to have met him and your Mom and...

My condolences Jayne I used to see your father at the post office we had some very nice conversations it was always a pleasure to talk to him. My prayers are with you.

To Jayne and family, I was heartbroken to hear os your fathers passing. I had just spoken with him downtown just a couple of weeks ago. He was a dear friend and I will miss him greatly. We both shared a love for Vermont and spoke of the camp up on Lake Willoughby often. As a fellow businessman in Durham we had many interesting discussions through the years about our vocations. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers and wish we could have been together during this pandemic...
