Carl Jacob Davison

Trish & Brittany,

Many years have passed since Carl and the two of you were a special part of our everyday lives. I remember Carl as a devoted, loving, father. Brittany would light up like a firefly whenever Daddy came to pick her up. She was so delighted to see him, and so proud of him. I have a longlasting image in my mind of Carl holding Brittany in his arms, standing on the deck, looking out at Pikes Peak. I don't know what they were chatting about in that moment, but I am sure...

I found out today about your loss. My sincerest heart-felt sympathies go out to Carl's family. Please know you will be in my prayers. I knew Carl from Bob Young's Cabaret. Carl was a person of great stature and I am truly blessed to have been able to share part of his life.

Oh, God I just heard. This is a terrible loss. My thoughts are with Carl's family and friends. I worked with Carl at Pfizer in California, and always admired his wit, candor and sharp insights. On top of everything else, he no doubt helped at least one medical company advance its work enough to get closer to a cure for cancer and a host of other killers that take away our friends much too soon.

Carl,

I met you in a professional capacity, and you became a treasured colleague. You shared your expertise, your time and your spirit!! I learned a lot from you, and appreciated you for your talent. Keep doing what you do in Heaven!!!

Hey Carl, It wasn't enough, the time we had together. We talked and laughed. We played games and walked, and hiked or ran together. Skipping down the road just for the fun of it is one of my fondest memories with you. It just wasn't enough. I miss you already and I will through the years to come. I am glad to have had you for my friend.

To Trish and Brittany,
Carl was instrumental 20 years ago in helping me and my family work through several crises. He was always very compassionate and patient and provided a place for us to come for guidance and hope that we could resolve our issues.
He will be misssed greatly and we extend our condolences to you both and wish you the best in the future.

I am still in disbelief....but I know it's true. I guess I just want it not to be true. There are too many things I could say/write....but I can only say right now that he was my friend, my best friend, my best man, and really much more than a friend to me, probably more like a brother. I feel a big hole in my heart opening up and I don't want it to, but every time I think about calling, writing, or talking with him.....it's there....so, I can't deny it.

I am clinging to the hope...

Susan and I are saddened beyond words by what we learned, just today. So may what we write here remember—no, celebrate—you Carl, as we knew you and love you. Because there are no words for the sadness. We can only write about the happiness you brought.

Who helped me through the most difficult time in my career? You did, Carl. Who taught me to wear Western boots with a suit? You did, Carl. Who always met me for breakfast at the Old Town Guest House in Colorado Springs? You...

Yvette... though it isn't much, please know that I am so sorry for your loss and I wish I were closer to help you through this. I was SO excited when you found such a great man and partner and that you were happy. It is terrible to let go of those we love, but remember it is THAT love that stays with us and makes us stronger, better people. Carl had so much to teach and share with everyone, we were all blessed to have the time to know him when we did. Brittany, Trish... my sincere...
