Mr. Carey was just the nicest of men. He always had a smile on his face. He was a true gentleman! I know his family will miss him more than we can imagine. But the City of Murfreesboro has lost a just a very, very good man!

Bill was a great man with a generous heart. His love for those suffering with diabetes was shown year after year with the golf tournament.
