The following message was sent out on behalf of his wife:
Dear Fans and Friends of Don S. Davis,
So many of you have been touched by not only the work and art of Don S. Davis, but by the man himself, who always took the time to be with you at the appearances he loved, that it is with a tremendous sense of loss I must share with you that Don passed away from a massive heart attack on Sunday morning, June 29th.
On behalf of his family and wife, Ruby, we thank you for your prayers and condolences. A family memorial where Don's ashes will be scattered in the ocean will take place in a few weeks, and should you wish to, please make a donation to the American Heart Association (https://donate.americanheart.org/ecommerce/aha/aha_index.jsp) in Don's memory.
Those of you I've spoken to over IM have probably picked up on how big a Stargate fan I am; I doubt there are many people who have watched the show and don't adore Don's depiction of General Hammond. Not only was he a fantastic actor, but a fantastic person as well: funny, friendly, and an all-round awesome guy.
God speed, Dr. Davis. :(
