May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Never had the pleasure of meeting your dad Greg and Reese, but he must have been a good guy because the two of you were so nice.

Mr. Carson was my role model and hero. I grew up next door to the Carson family. Mr. Carson formed the first little league baseball team on Oates st..You could hear his laughter from one end of the block to the other end.Never heard him raise his voice in anger.And when I went to the baseball games at RFK and Mr Carson was the hot dog man I knew he would give me all the free dogs I wanted.Great neighbor,father and husband. God bless you.
