Camille was born in Waco, Texas, to the late Arthur Leonard and Mary Edna Boothe Mitchell.

Curious, witty, and involved in the world around her, Camille touched the lives of many friends, young and old, who visited her for interesting conversation and advice.

Camille created a charming environment in her home with her beloved antiques and collectibles, especially enjoying decorating for Christmas.

Survivors include her son, Bob Carroll and his wife, Pamela, of Austin; daughters, Mary Ellen Boydstun and her husband, Dwaine, of Austin, and Tobin Dee Wangerin and her husband, Steve, of Thousand Oaks, Calif.; grandchildren: Frank Carroll and Hannah Carroll Knight, both of Austin, and Hayley, Peter, Molly, and Brad Tobin, all of Thousand Oaks, California.
