Loss of a legend: The entire El Dorado County community is in mourning after the loss of Davey “Doc” Wiser this week. Davey, who often joked he was born in the wrong century, was a fixture in the area — known for his jubilant personality, love of all things Old West and keeping Gold Rush history alive. The Mountain Democrat is gathering stories for a piece honoring Davey and celebrating his well-lived life. He will be missed by so many. Please send anecdotes and thoughts about Davey to Shelly Thorene, [email protected], by noon Monday, March 23.
