In Memoriam
The Mobile Bay Group of Sierra Club honored the life
of long-serving local community leader and Chair of the Mobile Bay Group
Sierra Club, Carol Adams-Davis, with a reception Tuesday, November 7,
2023, at the Five Rivers Delta Resource Center on the Causeway, in
Spanish Fort.
Carol Adams-Davis was instrumental in helping to
establish the annual Earth Day Mobile Bay event held in Fairhope,
Alabama. Carol was also actively involved in advocating for the Mobile
River Delta and surrounding areas, including environmental issues
regarding the unlined coal ash pond at the Barry Power Plant north of
Mobile and bringing awareness of environmental racism as portrayed in
the recent Netflix documentary, “Descendant”. She was an exceptional
woman and will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her. Donations
in her memory can be made to Mobile Baykeeper, the Mobile Bay Group of
Sierra Club and/or the Alabama Chapter of Sierra Club, of which she was a
member of the Executive Committee (EXCOM) and Beyond Coal Campaign.
Turn Again To Life
by Mary Lee Hall
be not like others sore undone, who keep
long vigils by the silent dust, and weep.
For my sake – turn again to life and smile,
nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do
something to comfort weaker hearts than thine.
Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine
and I, perchance may therein comfort you.
