Clarence Glen Davidson, 83 of Akron, passed away at his home on March 21, 2019.

Clarence was born on April 20, 1935 to Orville and Esther (Johnson) Davidson in Cope, Colorado.  The family then moved to Otis, Colorado.

He enlisted in the US Navy on April 26, 1952.  Afterwards he worked for the Navy as a foreman and airplane electrician.  He traveled the world and worked on special projects for the Department of Defense.

He and his family lived in California for 40 years.  When he retired, he moved to Akron, CO with his wife Dorothy.  He was active in the VFW in Akron.  Clarence was very social and had many friends.

Clarence helped many people throughout his life.  He was a generous and kind man.  He had a great sense of humor which he retained throughout his long illness.  Even in his worst moments of pain, he made it a point to make you smile.

Clarence loved to build Lego sets.  He would build huge Lego projects and then give them to his great-grandchildren, who were always in awe when presented with them.  Clarence also loved to play poker with his friends; and always looked so forward to their games.

He was preceded in death by his mother and father, Esther and Orville Davidson; brothers Harold, Wayne, and Bill Davidson; wife Dorothy Davidson; his daughter Judy Dock; and his canine companion whom he loved dearly, Mr. Gibbs.
