A rejuvenated Marlon Davidson is back home at Greenville, focused on what's ahead after enduring a year full of turmoil.
In February, a self-proclaimed mama's boy and youngest of four children, lost his mother. Cynthia Carter died at age 47. Marlon, then a junior at Carver-Montgomery after transferring from Greenville before that year, learned of her death after getting a haircut.
The call came from his brother, telling him to get to the hospital right away.
Cynthia, who had been complaining of leg pain for a few days, had gone back to the doctor for a visit, but collapsed and hit her head.
