Today we lost a legend who changed our lives profoundly - Ron Davis was a brilliant, kind, and gentle man whose discoveries in the field of Dyslexia and Autism have helped countless people around the world. His insights into the mind will go down in history as profound discoveries. He was well ahead of his time, but never gave up on his message and purpose.
Forever grateful…rest is peace Ron, we are honored to bring your work forward for generations to come!
💖🙏⭐️
It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Ronald D. Davis, founder of the Davis Method and creator of the programs that have changed how the world understands dyslexia, autism, and neurodivergent learning.
Ron grew up in a world he experienced as chaotic and painful. He didn't speak until he was 17. He couldn't read until his late 30s. And when he finally found his own way through it, he spent the rest of his life building a path for others to follow.
Ron believed that what he had created was not his to keep. It belonged to every facilitator who carried it forward, and every person whose life it changed. As he put it: "It cannot be unowned. If it's unowned, it will disappear." He entrusted that work to all of us, and the worldwide Davis community will continue to carry it forward.
Thank you, Ron, for everything you gave the world; for the millions of people who now see their own minds differently because of you; for seeing ability and possibility where others saw only limitations.
We'd love our community to share a memory of Ron, a photo, or the way his work has touched your life. Comment below, or tag us in your posts. We're gathering these to celebrate everything he gave the world.
Rest well, Ron. Your gift lives on in all of us. 💜🩵🤍
