Carol Evans became my therapist when I was 10 yo and she saw right through me from Day one where multiple therapists had already failed. Over the next 29 years she would transition from my therapist to my mentor and finally my last call when I had questions no one else could answer. She was my Saving Grace on so many occasions. She was private and proud at times but her gift for understanding human motivation and behavior was unparalleled. She saved more people than any of us will ever know and now without her, the world seems so much emptier. I will always feel lost without my Northern Star but I’m thankful I knew her long enough to be able to hear her voice advising me in my head. Thank You, Carol, for EVERY SINGLE THING.

Ms. Carol was a very special client who became a very dear friend. We bonded over fond memories of California. She would tell stories about the blackouts during WWII, and I told her that my great-grandfather helped to paint the windows black. She was amused by the story of how my husband and I fell in love, and, after I had children, she was always interested in their development. Having been a successful and respected child psychologist working in emergency, clinical, and private practice, she was a wealth of knowledge, and she gave me such valuable guidance during a time of need. She was a wonderful pet parent, sensing problems before they could even be detected by medical diagnostics. Her only fault may have been her unwillingness to give up, but really that just speaks to her tenacious spirit. Ms. Carol was never married and never had children, so some would say she had no family. That would be a mistake, as the special few she allowed into her life loved her as their own. Ms. Carol, I will miss you tremendously. Give Minette a side eye for me.

"Some people walk in and out of our lives; others leave footprints in our hearts." 

I don't know that I've met many individuals that could see people the way she did, see their truths, who they really are inside, the way Carol did. 
Her own honesty was a force to be reckoned with, but that was only one of her inspirational characteristics.
Ms. Carol indeed left many footprints on my heart and in my life.
To say she has a place in my heart would be an understatement, she has a piece of my heart with her. 



Ms. Carol was intelligent, funny, and  very interesting to talk to. She was very caring and giving. I loved our conversations about her family, my family, world problems, especially at 3:00 am! ❤️ She was so kind to me and I feel so blessed to call her my friend.
