WELL KNOWN RESIDENT AND HALIFAX EXPLOSION SURVIVOR PASSES AWAY

Eric was born in Halifax to Georgina (Williams) and John William Davidson on May 10, 1915.

He was a common fixture striding along Halifax streets and riding Halifax Transit but Eric especially enjoyed strolling with his children through Point Pleasant Park where he could hear the wind in the trees and the sounds of nature all around him. A lifetime member of United Memorial Church where he served on the Board of Trustees for many years, Eric rarely missed Sunday worship services. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge (Athole Lodge #15) and a charter member of the Canadian Council of the Blind. In retirement, Eric volunteered his time and talents at Northwood and at Camp Hill. He also became a Ham Radio operator. A truly remarkable man who overcame his loss of vision to lead a full and wonderful life, he provided a warm and loving home for his family and all who visited.

He is survived by his wife, the former Mary Zinck; daughter, Marilyn Elliott (John), Kentville; sons, John (Debbie), Calgary; Andrew (Lisa), Lower Sackville; several grandchildren and great grandchildren; sister, June Clark, Halifax.
