TO THE EDITOR:

I am one of many who have been touched by Eve Carson’s spirit. I only know about her from what I have read.

I have read that she was a dual major with extreme service as her mission. It is obvious that her work and impact in North Carolina, Georgia and foreign countries has been and will continue to be enormous.

It is apparent to me that this young treasure was a strong humanitarian and leader: a rare combination indeed. Her impact has been and continues to be significant. I am certain that if someone took on the task to write about Eve’s impact, both directly and by proxy, it would be enormous.

I am not saying anything new to the friends of Eve Carson. However, I do say God bless you for loving her as much as you do. You have honored her in many ways. Thank you for doing so.

Because it has been four years (the usual time to earn a doctorate I believe), I would like to publicly nominate Eve Marie Carson for the conferring of an honorary doctorate by UNC.

I am quite certain she has earned it, both through her life and spirit that remains strong in those who love her and continue her work.
