"... let Davey blow your mind with his style, originality and creativity that we are privileged to witness..." - Bruce Crisman

David "Davey" Watson, 37, of Gig Harbor passed away peacefully on April 28, 2025 at his mother's home.  Davey was born March 8, 1988 in a Naval hospital located on Agana, Guam.  He was preceded in death by his father Frank Watson.

Davey grew up in Gig Harbor, Washington.  Attended Kopachuck middle school, Gig Harbor High, & Bates Technical College.  Davey was a kind hearted soul, a sweet, loving, & free spirit.  Charming wit with the ability to make anyone laugh.  A passion for sports, growing up playing basketball & baseball.  His most passionate, however, is when he discovered bmx riding.  Through this, he was able to travel many parts of the world internationally & domestically.  A one-of-a-kind on the bike, he was loved & made a huge impact in the BMX world.

He will be greatly missed by all his family, friends, & fans of the BMX community.  He is survived by his mom (Rose) & brother (John).

A celebration of life for Davey will be at his mother's home:
