Ira Carter's Tribute to Bob "Sundance" Davidson

Bob "Sundance" Davidson died all too soon in April 1999. This July, Bob's friends from Webster College and everywhere else he touched down on Earth gathered at his home in Spring Green, WI for a celebration of Bob's life. Especially distraught to be absent was Laura Brown (Webster 1971-5), who missed her flight because of a stomach flu. I am told the Webster contingent acquitted itself admirably as the loudest and most joyful table at a both sad and happy event. I miss Bob, he had a huge influence on my life. All Webster dates are based on my atrophied memory and are unlikely to be correct.

Steve Meyer (Webster 1971-3) and wife Gile Fredrick Meyer (Webster 1971-3)

Nicest people you'd ever care to meet. I did a horrible disservice to this handsome couple making them squint into the sun. Steve also Bob's friend from Francis Parker school in Chicago and Webster.

John Kyle (Webster 1971-5) and wife Ann Colichidas

John has been my friend over 60% of my life, with the figure climbing all the time. Sold Christmas trees with Bob while "living" in a trailer. Bonds like that cannot be broken. Ann is also a very nice person who tolerates my excesses.
