This is the first
entry in a now-and-then series of posts on people who have significantly altered
or elaborated the physical or social character of Davis. Such people can be
thought of as “major shapers.” Of course, virtually everyone associated with
Davis has shaped it to some degree. Even so, some few people have had very
large and wide impacts. Such people are the focus here.
This post is on Gordon Anderson, who died in 1937 at age 61.
The post consists of his obituary published in the Davis Enterprise on August 27, 1937 and a photo of Bernard Rogers
and him posed in their general merchandise store circa 1915. (Anderson is on the right.)
