Davis Carroll
CARROLL, Davis Of Boston, on February 22, 2011, died from complications of injuries
sustained after being hit by a car. Carroll graduated from Massachusetts College of Art
and soon began his career as a painter. A member of the Copley Society of Boston, the
American Watercolor Society, and the Boston Watercolor Society, he was well known for his
artwork. His paintings featured the distinctive landscapes, gardens, houses, and street
scenes of classic New England locales such as Marblehead and Boston. Mastering a unique
technique of painting in watercolors on rice paper, Carroll portrayed Yankee clipper ship
models, flowers, and antiques that represented regional life. His work was widely
exhibited in the Northeast and Florida. In addition to exhibiting his art, he was a
dedicated teacher with many loyal students. After residing in Natick for many years, in
later life Carroll resided in Boston where he was a member of St. Cecilia's Church and
an advocate for the Campaign for H!
uman Rights and the AIDS Action Committee. He is survived by his children, Elizabeth,
Alicia, and John Carroll, their spouses Ralph Letner, Robert Kulick, and Marci Aylward,
grandchildren Dorothea and Caroline Letner and Alexandra Kulick, his sister Joyce Mulcahy,
many nieces and nephews, and his long-time companion, Robert Glazier. A memorial service
will be held in June and donations, in lieu of flowers, may be made to the AIDS Action
