Moderators DavidB Posted June 30, 2008 Moderators Share Posted June 30, 2008 A true gentleman from the few times I was lucky enough to get to talk to him. I'd always just assumed I'd get another chance in the near future. You just never know. My thoughts to his family. Rest in peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastersoftheshow Posted June 30, 2008 Author Share Posted June 30, 2008 OMG!! Is this true?? Where did you get that from? Oh wow. I don't know what to say. From his agent. She sent it a couple of hours ago. Believe me - sadly enough - it's not a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainbowDisney Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) Wikipedia lists Don as passing away June 29 2008 - cause of death as yet unknown (obviously we now know the circumstances) so i'd say it's no way a joke.

Stevie79 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 I am completely shocked. I remember meeting him at LFCC4. Such a nice guy. He will be sorely missed. My sympathy goes out to his family and friends. Rest in peace Don. You will never be forgotten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crippsy_99 Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 oh.my.god! Didn't he cancel Chevron? Oh what a shame! I'm not a Stargate fan, but I deff know who he was, so this is a shock to many. Yep, if he'd have made it over, those who went would have been the last few fans probably to ever meet him, makes it even more of a shame he couldnt make it now RIP Don S Davis..he was one of the (stargate) family..

There's certain things I don't joke about. He truly was a great guy. I had dinner with him and the anecdotes he told, the love he had for his wife, it was truly a special moment.

Abyss Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Talk about 2008 being a bad year. He was my favourite SG character. Checked Wiki and it has him listed as passing on June 29th. I can't find it anywhere else. This is a shocker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadOne Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Don was a great actor and a great man. I was lucky enough to encounter him at a LFCC and he embodied the courtesy and respect of the old fashioned gentleman that he was. There was a full welcolme from himself and his good lady for every single attendee - many guests (well, a good few at least) take time to talk to us at signings but the wide smile and hearty handshake was somehow unique. Don - God Speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His wife, Ruby Fleming-Davis has asked that you post the following on your websites for his fans: Dear Fans and Friends of Don S. Davis, So many of you have been touched by not only the work and art of Don S. Davis, but by the man himself, who always took the time to be with you at the appearances he loved, that it is with a tremendous sense of loss I must share with you that Don passed away from a massive heart attack on Sunday morning, June 29th.

roxy Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 As I've already said in the other thread, can't believe it either, such a shock. He was always a joy to meet and believed in sharing that joy with everyone....sweet, courteous, funny, warm and a true gentleman, there wasn't anything not to love bless him. Can't believe we won't have the privilege of seeing his face again He'll be so missed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 This is just... I really don't know what to say. Rest in peace Don. You will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayim Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 I heard last night and woke up this morning hoping it was a misunderstanding. The note from JCB throws that last bit of hope out of the window. I was lucky enough to have met him more than once, including at my first ever convention. A true gentleman, in every sense of the word, unless he was trying to con hugs and kisses out of the female attendees! But even then, no-one minded at all. Like others said, I always assumed I'd get a chance to meet him again RIP Don. We love you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 In shock when I saw the announcement first, in a fanfic of all places. He will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
