Larry V. Davidson passed away on Nov. 17, 2023.

He was born on September 4, 1963, in Portland, Oregon, to Don and Joan Davidson. He moved to The Dalles at 11 days old, where he loved to play baseball and basketball, fish, and hunt “varmints.”

Larry stayed in The Dalles until he left for his Mission in New Orleans. When he returned from his Mission, he married his first wife Maria Harrison, and together they moved to Rexburg, Idaho to attend Ricks College (BYU’s junior college). After receiving his Associate’s Degree, he and Maria moved to Portland where he attended Portland State University to major in Criminal Justice. That is also where he had his first child, Dylan Davidson.

A few years after graduating from college, he landed his dream job with the DEA (even as a little boy he always said he wanted to be a G-Man). As a DEA Agent, he traveled the world and held posts in Seattle; Jackson, MS; and Nicaragua to name a few.

After his career with the DEA was over, he became a Forensic Accountant, which took him all over the Country, investigating suspected money laundering schemes, and other potential bank crimes.

In 2002, while working for the DEA in Portland, he met and married his second wife Allison Drake, and she had his second child, Sofi Davidson. However, the life of a DEA Agent soon took its toll, and they amicably parted ways.

As they say, “third time’s a charm,” and it was his third and last marriage to Rebecca Seely that provided the glue that stuck. Together, they traveled, enjoyed family and friends, and activities centered around their church.

He is survived by his wife, Rebecca; his children, Dylan Davidson, Sofi Davidson, and Spencer Johnson; his sister Linda Davidson-Joy; his nephew Brian Joy; and good friend Melanie Alley. He was preceded in death by his brother Mark Davidson; his father Donald Davidson; and his mother Joan Davidson (Tunison).
