Sunday's passing of actor Don S. Davis came as a shock to his family and friends, and also to those of us in the Stargate world who consider ourselves something of an "extended family," and to the entire Vancouver film community. Many of us met him at conventions, or on the set of one of his many projects. A few of us even had the privilege of getting to know him personally.

While the SG-1 team got all the storylines and fan attention, Don reported for duty each day to put in a steady and vital performance as the General -- the man who sent good people on dangerous missions, always wishing that he himself did not have to stay behind.
