Gerald will always be remember as a person who worked hard, played hard and above all loved his family. My sister Audrey and I, as youngsters, have such fond memories of the many family dinners in Coniston and the fun times at the camp he and Lena operated. There we enjoyed everything from campfires to smelt fishing. His optimism , his joy ,his good humour , and above his nature to make everyone feel welcome will be carried in our hearts forever. He will be missed. Evelyn and Jim
We are so sorry for the loss of your father, grandfather and great grandfather. May the memories you have made with him help you through the months to come and May he RIP
My name is Bill Foster and I am work colleague of Kim's. On behalf of her team and coworkers, we would like to express our sincere condolences to the Davis family on the passing of Mr. Davis. Kim is a valued member of our team and I assume it's because the acorn did not fall far the tree. Our thoughts are with Kim and the family at this difficult time.
A donation has been made to HABITAT. Message from the donator: Your Dad had great talent to build and it would be nice to think of him seeing a home built for a family. Thinking of Gerald's wonderful family. ❤️ Dianne McComb Jean McComb Grant McComb
Sending all of you my sincere sympathy with Gerald's passing. I had some wonderful visits with him at his apartment, and was truly honoured to be part of some of his milestone birthday celebrations. May all of your memories bring you peace. Sincerely, Elaine
What a handsome photo of Gerald. He was a proud husband, father and grandfather. He was a very hard worker (a hard miner) and a skilled craftsman. He so enjoyed his retirement and we are so thankful that we had a chance to visit with him in our home, although a few years ago. May he rest in peace and meet his beloved Lena and Brenda.
RIP Uncle Gerald!
