In Honor Of Ssgt Carletta S. Davis
As the time goes and the members of Carletta stands
firm in my heart, I look for ways to help others make a brand new start.
In my church family and on the streets.  All through the day I pray for
peace.  Peace in my mind, heart and soul.  For those to come to build
a relationship with God through his sone Jesus Christ.  For all the
wrong or rights we will have to fight.  We just know to do what carletta
did, stood up for what she knew to be right.  She serviced her country
with all her might.  We love her eternity because we of us that know the
promises will see her in the new heaven and celebrate the love that
God has make.  Thank you for this time to share my thoughts to those that
really care.
Sincerely
Lavada

Guess what, SSG Davis?  I got married two years ago to one of the MP's we cared for.  
Remember when I asked you if you thought that hydrocortisone would be sufficient for a kid
who had heat rash?  That's the one I married.  I miss you.  I miss your advice.  I know it's been
so long, but every once in a while I have those breakdowns.  Today is one of them.  Probably
because the memorial bracelet is soon to be a tattoo.  I know you'd hate still being idolized
much as you thought I was crazy for it when you were alive... But you truly were my idol, my
mentor.

Today is February 17, 2012 Carletta's Birthday.  Her Sons are doing well as can be done when
losing their mother.  They and I think of her every day.  She is a big lose to our family and her
friends.  I think of her so much that sometimes I feel her near.  I think of the fun times and the
phone calls when she is sharing something that the kids did and we would laugh about it and
Bring to her rememberance of her and her brother and sister doing some of the same things.
Living in Washington state and knowing that a building in Texas is going to be named after her
is an honor.  I hope to visit Texas one day. I just take one day at a time.  Writing is one of my
ways to get some ease.

December 10, 2011 still have wounded hearts for the loss of Sgt Carletta S. Davis, Daughter
first, Sister, Wife, Mother, and Solider.  I hope all the family, friends and comrades will continue
to remember her giving heart.  Pray for her three sons.  If every person look around the living
area, put up, clean up the homes of the seniors, working poor, pick up trash, volunteer to help
one child to read. Help recycle materials in our community. We must keep America Clean.
Rebuild where you can. Take care of your nearest friends.  We love forever her beautiful smile.

SSG Davis: Although we only knew each other for a short time, I considered you as a part of
my extended family. I still think of you constantly, as I do Johnny, Derek, and Adam. As
November 5th comes close once again, the memories of the four of you fill my head. You
should know that Jasmin idolized you, and I'm doing my best to take care of her and make her
happy. I want you to know that we all still miss you, and that the memories I have of you are
with a constant smile, which tend to leave me with a smile as well. You will continue to be in
my thoughts, with your family in my prayers.

I miss you Carletta.  You taught me so much in the year we were deployed together.  Your
compassion, drive, and love for all things still amazes me.  God may have called you home, but
you made a lasting impression on many hearts.  I love you, my sister, my student, my teacher,
and my friend.

Today is December 28, 2008.  Counting the days beyond your earthy death date does not
make the pain go away.  It just pulls the scape on my wounded heart.  Talking to my
grandchildren is like medicine to ease the pain.  Writing, reading and talking about my
daughter, Carletta helps me get to a point in life to encourage others.  Encourage them to think
about what actions to take toward another. To have a steadfast Godly purpose in this life.  Not
that people build brownie points for entrance to the everlasting place, but a height of greatest
happiness right here on earth.  The world is like a Parlor of pigs.  Some of us entertained
angels and did not even know.  If you look back in your memory, conversating with Carletta
you will find the encourage thoughts she gave in Love.  She could not make the decisions for
you.  I remember listening to her sharing the evidence of her soul's place in Heaven.  Although
George Washington warned against entanglements with!
foreign countries, we all have the Grace of God covering us.  In our fickle state we covet,
cherish and value ungodly actions as if they matter with God.  Only kindness, gentleness,
Loving, patience and self-control.  Only these thing will bring your heart as pure gold through
the fire.  Look into your heart remove those things that block the true you from taking Godly,
holy actions within your community.  Just Writing a letter of Love to a senior person setting
alone in a nursing home can cheer up their day.  For they have grown weary, not like the men
now the battlefield.  They need cheering up and cheering on for they do the things we need to
fellowship as we do.  I want each person that read this tribute for Carlett
a to look inside your home find something you can give to another person and help brighten
their day.  Start paying forward.  Each one of us can make a different, these soldiers did!!!!
I Love you Carletta S. Davis and I will never forget you and the other 4500+men and women
that died on battlefield.

Sgt. Carletta S. Davis first a daughter, a niece,a sister,an aunt, a mother, a friend, a helper in
time of need, a medical professional, and a lover of God's commands.  We cannot spend all our
time on our knees, but it is possible to have a prayerful attitude at all times. We as a family of
believers in Christ "...urge you in the name of the Lord Jesus to live in a way that pleases God,
as the Word teaches us.  I want you to know what will happen to the Christians who have died
so you will not be full of sorrow like people who have no hope.  For since we believe that
Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus comes, God will bring
back with Jesus all the Christians who have died.  I can tell you this directly from the Lord; We
who are still living when the Lord returns will not rise to meet him ahead of those who are in
their graves.  For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout,
with the call of the arc!
Angel, and with the trumpet call of God.  First, all the Christians who have died will rise from
their graves.  Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be
caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and remain with him forever.  So comfort
and encourage each other with these words."  1 Thessalonians 4:13-18

I wear your memorial bracelet everyday. It's still hard
to believe you are gone. I pray that your 3 boys and Thomas find
peace. I miss you and appreciate EVERYTHING you have done for me! I am kind
of lost for words because it is still sinking in. I love you Carletta.
