Honoring Carole Provenzale... a Mother a Friend a Mentor and so Much more...she was our Everything

Carole Provenzale

Dear Friends of Carole Provenzale,

My name is Laura Cerrano, Carole Provenzale's daughter, I had the pleasure of meeting some of you at RainCamp in New York City. I want to honor my mother by thanking her for EVERYTHING that she has done for my brother Adam and I. She has no idea the gift she has given us, being our mother, best friend, we could not have ask for a better mentor and mother.

Unfortunately our mother passed yesterday 5/18/2010 around 6pm. She was dealing with multiple health issues and finally she went in peace in her sleep with Adam and I by her bedside. She always told me how much she loved the Activerain community and the hundreds of people she connected with who then became friends and she loved very much :)

I will do my best to continue my mother's work and up keep her blogs, business and continue to teach and inspire you with the teachings of Feng Shui.

I am SO SAD; I had no idea she was even having health issues. What a sad couple of days it has been. We had a young Tomball soldier who was killed in Afghanistan and I keep watching the motorcade over and over and now this! I guess there are some things we will not understand until we ourselves get to the pearly gates.

Melinda, her face always comforted me till I saw the title on this one. What a shock!

Sue, you should go to some of her older posts to learn what she was all about. She was REAL! Transparent as they say. She was wonderful.

Candice, I'm certain they can use the prayer. And yes, she was amazing. Thank you.

Marchy, I knew about some of the issues but you know Carol. She always had that upbeat "it's all okay" attitude.

WE WILL MISS HER!

The world has lost an amzing lady. Talented, kind, good hearted, and charming. I will miss her but my attention also goes to following her daughter in blogging.

Me too Tom. I'm sure it makes Carol so happy that her daughter has followed in her footsteps. I for one am looking forward to reading Laura's follow up posts. We will love her too I'm sure. Good to hear from you.

Gosh this is such devastating news. I only knew Carol as a Facebook friend and as an Active Rain blogger, she came across as a gently soul with a good heart. Please accept our deepest condolences to you and your family. This is a tragic loss for all of us in the community.
