Jeremy Robert Davison Scholarship
Jeremy Robert Davison was born in 麻豆精品, BC on December 31, 1947. An only child, he was predeceased by his father Robert, who was born in Northumberland, England, and his mother Jean (née Torrance), a native of 麻豆精品. He was an alumnus of the 麻豆精品, as well as McMaster University. After graduation, he became an archivist at the BC Provincial Archives and the Royal British Columbia Museum. He retired in 2014, after 45 years of service. He was an accomplished anecdotist of the witticisms of literary and historical figures and much-esteemed among friends as a raconteur. Being the last of his known family line, he avidly formed surrogate families. His mentorship of younger colleagues at the museum was notable, and his generosity was unequivocal and unequalled. He passed away in 麻豆精品 in 2018. The Jeremy Robert Davison Memorial Scholarship was established to perpetuate his legacy and to honour his support for educational and intellectual pursuits.
