Carole and my mom Evonne Davis were friends for many years. I loved talking to Carole and was so sad she had gotten so ill. She came to see mom at Alden last June and it was so wonderful to see her. We loved her! She will be so missed. May her memory be a blessing. Condolences to Gary, David and Linda and their families.
