James Jim Davidson, age 64 of Watertown, died Tuesday, November 17, 2009 at his residence. He was born March 9, 1945 in St. Paul, Minnesota to Walter and Donna (Immerman) Reinhard. Since he was three years old he was raised by his mother and step-father, Chet and Donna (Immerman) Davidson in Watertown. He was confirmed at Grace Lutheran Church in Watertown and graduated from Watertown High School in 1963. Jim was united in marriage to Karen Brenden in 1964 and they had two sons, Chad and Lance Davidson. He attended Dakota State College in Madison, South Dakota.
