During my first class year at Annapolis (1974-75) I was privileged to know and work with Dr. Davidson. He took me under his wing as Brigade Academic Liaison Officer for those two semesters. He was a strong leader and proponent of a classical, well-rounded liberal education for every Midshipman. He had a brilliant engineering mind and could discourse on Plutarch and Livy. My memory of him is as a man of great principle who understood his purpose in life and demonstrated that purpose daily. A life well-lived, a race well-run.

Requiescat In Pace, Dr. Davidson.

I visited Bruce and Mary Davidson in their home with my older brother, Louis Knoepp, and his wife Lynn a few years ago. Bruce was our last surviving first cousin. We stayed over night and enjoyed wonderful meals and conversation with them. They shared stories about the family. I admired his beautiful cherry wood furniture and the many family pictures in his home. I knew he had great success in his engineering, military, and academic career paths over a long life and had met his wife Mary at University of Michigan where she studied nursing. Their children and grandchildren continue their wonderful history. I will always value these memories.

Thoughts and prayers to the family, especially at this time.
