DANVILLE —
Carol Voyles, 85, died Tuesday, March 5, 2013, in a nursing home near Reno, Nev., after a losing battle with pneumonia.
Carol was born on Jan. 21, 1928, to Pearl and James Donaldson in Georgetown.
A registered nurse, she retired after a 20-year career with the Veterans Administration hospitals in Danville and in Reno, Nev.
She was a 1949 graduate of the Saint Elizabeth Hospital School of Nursing in Danville and graduated from Georgetown High School in 1945.
For 36 years she was married to Don Voyles, who died in 1986.

Surviving are four children, Charles Voyles of Sacramento, Calif., and Susan (Voyles) Dornan of Reno, Brian Voyles of Reno, and Judith (Voyles) van Aman in nearby Gardnerville, Nev.
In her last years, Carol’s children took care of her. She enjoyed spending time with her seven grandchildren and almost daily visits with her three little great-granddaughters.
