A beautiful water color," Peonies and Lilacs in Cousin Rita's Panda Bowl," was the first piece of fine art my husband and I bought at a gallery in Marblehead more than 30 years ago. It has hung in my house ever since, and given us great pleasure. I am so sorry to learn of Mr. Carroll's tragic death. His work was delicate and elegant and I loved it.

I am very saddened to have just heard the news of davis's passing. He was a gifted artist, trustworthy friend, hysterically funny, but more than that... he was a super listener and good friend. He helped me with his maturity, and gave me guidance at one of my lowest points. I am saddened to here this news. Sorry this is so late... as I fell out of touch. My deepest sympathies.

I just learned of Davis' passing and was very saddened. I met Davis at the Jesuit Urban Center around 1989 and treasured his sense of humor. I was a guest in his home and travelled to Ogunquit with him. He was a talented artist. I met some of his family in Osterville. I have lost a special friend.

I worked with Davis at Quinn & Johnson in the late 60's. When I got married he gave me a picture as a present and it has hung over our bed for 43 years. He was a very gentle spirit who always willingly shared his wisdom with a young girl trying to make her way in the world of advertising. I am glad I knew him.
My condolences to all.

We were so fortunate to have exhibited Davis's work for over 25 years in our gallery, but better yet, to have known this wonderful person over this time. We were late in getting word of his passing, but had spoken with him by phone after his accident, and he was still trying his best to satisfy his many collectors by accepting inquiries and looking toward the future. He was one of the kindest human beings that we have ever worked with. We will always remember his calm, friendly personality, and his wonderful outlook on the world. We'll miss him.

GOD SAW YOU GETTING TIRED Unknow Author
GOD saw you getting tired,
and a cure was not to be.
So GOD wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, "Come to me."
With tearful eyes we watched you
and saw you pass away
and although we love you dearly
we could not make you stay.
A Golden heart stopped beating
When GOD gave you rest .
GOD's garden must be beautiful;
because
He only takes the best.
My very deepest condolences to his family.
Davis my dearest friend in the whole world, I'll miss you so!!

We were saddened to learn of Davis's death. We met him in the 70's in Newton Centre when he exhibited his art work. We have many paintings and plates. They give us much joy as we look at them.
Please accept our sincere sympathy. He will be missed but always remembered.

I was sorry to hear of Mr. Davis' unexpected passing. I did not know him, but I remember him painting a lovely portrait of my mother in 1965. My sister has it hanging in her house. Our prayers go out to his family.

I think what I will miss most about Uncle Dave is hearing him laugh as he would throw his head back. Uncle Dave always had a twinkle in his eye and appreciated life. He had a unique relationship with my mother, they seemed to understand each other and appreciate each others gift of art. He definitely left his mark on this world and we shall miss him.

life. He will be so missed. Roberta Rosenthal from Prestige Gallery

My grandmother was Davis's cousin and we spent time with his family when I was a child. As an adult, I can appreciate his work so much more. His memory will live on in the artwork on my walls. What a great man the world has lost.

My deepest condolence to the family of Davis Carroll. He was my mother's art teacher for many years and I own two of his beautiful pieces - one of them painted for my late husband and myself. His work was a treasure and he will be missed.

What a sad shock to hear about Davis's passing. I enjoyed many years knowing Davis and laughing from his wonderful sense of humor. I enjoyed taking classes and also representing his art work. He will surely be missed. I will cherish the artwork I own by Davis. His memory will live on through the beauty he has left in the art world.
My deepest condolensces

God bless you, Davis.
To the family and friends my condolences. I share your loss. Davis and my Mother Anne (LeBonte) Shea were cousins. I'm blessed to have known Davis and grateful he and Robert were able to meet my wife and daughters. We'll miss him.
