Condolence From: Calvin Bartholomew
Condolence: Burt was fine scientist and very productive He was a pioneer especially in the area of Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis. He did a great service to the catalysis society by recording many of the talks given at important catalysis meeting I will miss seeing his big smile and hearing his hearty laugh.

Condolence From: Steve LeViness
Condolence: It is hard for me to believe that Burt won't be sitting in the front row with his video camera at nearly every chemical engineering and fuel chemistry meeting in the future. He was a fantastic scientist as well as a fantastic person. My condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues. You will be sorely missed Burt, and I am a better person for having known you all these years. Steve LeViness

Condolence: This is a huge loss. Burt Davis is one of the fathers of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and modern catalysis.
I met him in many conferences and congresses and always had very interesting and motivating discussions. I will keep forever in my heart his eternal enthusiasm, open mind and scientific curiosity. He was really a great person.
My deepest and most sincere condolences go to Burt’s family!

Condolence: The world is a greater place because of Burtron H. Davis, an amazing scientist, colleague and family man. Burt Davis captured the History of Catalysis including videography of many Greats in the field for all to see. He allowed me to take videos and tape interviews of his research. Those will be shared and memorialized. I will never forget his kindness, humor and wit and I am forever grateful to him.

Condolence From: Christopher Jones
Condolence: Burt was a vibrant figure in the heterogeneous catalysis community. He was a friend, a fountain of knowledge, and a wonderful researcher. His passing will deeply affect many dozens of researchers worldwide. Deepest condolences are offered to his family and closest friends on behalf of the North American Catalysis Society and ACS Catalysis.

Condolence From: Wilson Shafer
Condolence: I had the wonderful opportunity to work under Dr. Davis’ guidance for close to 11 years, having never heard of Fischer-Tropsch when I started. Through his patience, guidance and wisdom, I was able to grow quickly to forever have my career changed. Burt paved the way for me to obtain a Ph.D. part-time while working full-time under him. I am truly honored to have been able to work under such an extraordinary scientist. So many times, the hallways were filled with his booming laughter. I am truly sad to see him go as he provided so much. As I now roll into a faculty career, I am taking from his excellent example. I cannot thank him enough for all that he did. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family during this time of great loss.
