Will was born July 28, 1936 in Roseburg, Oregon, the youngest son of William Alexander Davidson and Lula Crumley Davidson. Will pursued a number of different vocations throughout his life and was a skilled farmer, amateur engineer, inventor, and pilot. He was no doubt most happy when flying above the fields of the Willamette Valley in his single engine planes.
The family fondly remembers his kindness and his devotion to caring for his mother, Lula, in the later years of her life. They also remember his sparkling blue eyes, his quick smile, quiet laugh, and unfailing good humor and optimism, even when life could seem most difficult.
Will was preceded in death by his parents and siblings: Alden Lloyd Davidson, Eva Ellen Parks, Anita Jean McMilan, Raymond William Davidson, Winifred Eleanor Suter, and Jack Kilborn Davidson. He is survived by numerous nieces and nephews. Private family services will be held at a future date. He is to be buried in Belcrest Memorial Park in Salem, near the graves of his parents and brother, Ray.
