Dear Doug,

Thank you so much for your quick response and kind words.

I would very much appreciate if you could post the following:

Robert William Davey (Robbie) leaves behind three precious young children,
Preston age 7, Lauren age 6 and Hayden age 4. They will learn today of their
father's untimely death. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers as
this will be a difficult and trying time for the entire family.

We appreciate all the kind words and condolences posted on this message
thread. The family is grateful that Robbie will be remembered and missed by
so many fellow aviators and friends.

As for the crash itself, we have been told that there was a mayday call from
Robert stating the tail had detached, shortly there after the engine failed
and then at some point before the plane hit the ground there was an
explosion. However, details may change and more may unfold as they continue
the investigation.

Again, the family would like to thank everyone for their kind words and
memories of Robbie. He will be truly missed by all that knew him.

Ryan, please pass along condolences as well to the family. I cannot imagine what they are going through. I may not be the most religious person in the world, but I will keep the family in my thoughts in the coming days.

An idea I had and maybe others as well: if you can, take and print some of the responses from JC members to the tragic news. In time it may help them to know how much their father/husband meant to members of this family we call aviators.

RIP
 
It's amazing how someone you never knew; who went through something you could never hope for could give you such goosebumps. RIP.
 
That story sends chills down my spine. What a tragic and sad thing to have happen. The family and friends are in my thoughts and prayers. RIP :(
 
I can't seem to get out of my head the thought of his grieving widow having to break the news to his three children! My heart truly goes out to his children and how they will have to accept and deal with this terrible news at such a young age. It hits very close to home, I could never imagine my wife having to do the same to my two children. My thoughts and prayers go out to this family in their time of tremendous loss.
