Carol Davis Crow passed away Sunday, May 14, 2017, at her home in Franklin, Tennessee. Carol was 44 years old and had waged a mighty fight against a rare brain cancer known as Chordoma since 2009.
Carol Davis Crow was born on February 21, 1973, in Houston, Texas, to Dennis and Betty Davis. Carol joined her older brother Sid Davis. She graduated from Clements High School in Sugarland, Texas, in 1991. In 1995, Carol received her Bachelor of Arts from the University of Texas at Austin where she was a member of the Alpha Phi sorority. Carol furthered her education at Texas Tech University School of Law, earning her Juris Doctor degree in 1998.

Carol married Kyle Crow on October 13, 2007, and on April 14, 2009, their precious daughter Cassidy Erin was born. Carol was diagnosed with Chordoma just 48 hours after Cassidy's birth. She courageously battled this disease while raising Cassidy, being a devoted wife to Kyle, making as many family memories as she could, working, and constantly searching for cutting edge treatments to combat her cancer. Carol fundraised to help find a cure for Chordoma, was active in a support group for those affected by the disease, and continued to be active in her community of friends.
