Herb Davis died April 22, 2013, at Keswick Assisted Living in Baltimore, Md. He was 87.

A lifelong Baltimorean, he was a prominent real-estate agent and broker as well as a licensed real-estate mediator. 
Herb graduated from the Friends School in 1943 and came to Princeton after serving in the Army. He was in the Battle of the Bulge and later received two Purple Hearts and a Bronze Star for gallantry, although he never said very much about this experience.

He worked for the Nassau Sovereign, was a member of Quadrangle, and ended up as chair of the Quadrangle Alumni Board. Herb’s career in real estate earned him many friends. As one of his closest associates put it, “Herb was a gentleman who ... was genuinely interested in people, and you could see how he drew them out.” He was interested in their needs, and worked hard to help them.

We remember Herb with affection and admiration and send our condolences to his family. He is survived by his wife, Ruth Anne (Rufus), and their children, Paige, Lynn, Sally, and Bruce. His daughter Carey ’73 predeceased him.
