Born in 1930 to Leo and Lucille Davin, Joe was the eldest of three, with siblings, Mary Lou Lynch (deceased) and Bill. He was raised on a farm with thoroughbred horses in Avon, New York, and graduated from the University of Toronto, BA 1952, MBA 1954. He served in the United States Army from 1954 to 1956. Joe spent his career at Manulife Financial in Toronto, Ontario, retiring in 1986. He married Catherine Auld in 1982. They traveled throughout Canada and the United States, finally settling in Tucson while still spending summers at their cottage in Kincardine, ON. In 1994, Joe and Cathy became enthusiastic members of SAGE (now OLLI), a learning-in-retirement organization at the University of Arizona. Over the years, he led many classes and contributed to the OLLI leadership, serving as president. It was here that Joe and Cathy formed the most wonderful friendships. These close friends were with Cathy and Joe's daughter, Carol, throughout Joe's last days, providing support and love. The compassionate care of the nursing staff and others at the University Medical Center made his last days bearable. Throughout his life, Joe was a lover of learning; he read extensively and continued to explore new ideas with friends. He loved being with his grandchildren, hiking in the great outdoors, and just enjoying each day of his life. Joe lived his life with joy; he was truly a good man. He will be missed always.
