Carlton's dedication to his family, work & squad was so amazing! How he juggled it all was only because God designed him that way. All who knew him loved him & looked up to him. With Delores by his side in whatever he did showed thier dedication & love for one another. He is so sadly missed & many tears have shed for the family. Prayers will continue as I ask God to hold you & give you comfort during this time. Love

A NOTE FROM HEAVEN

IF I COULD WRITE FROM HEAVEN,
THIS IS WHAT I'D SAY,
PLEASE DON'T MISS ME TOO MUCH,
I'M WITH YOU THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY,
YOU MAY NOT SEE OR HEAR ME,
BUT IT YOU'RE QUIET AND STILL,
YOU MAY FEEL MY PRESENCE;
BECAUSE, IN HEAVEN, THERE IS FREE WILL.
DON'T WORRY FOR THE DAY,
IT WILL COME AND GO AS PLANNED,
ENJOY EACH MOMENT YOU ARE GIVEN,
KEEP WORRY FROM YOUR HAND.
DEEP SORROW TO A MINIMUM;
FOR IF HEAVEN YOU COULD SEE,
YOU'D KNOW I'M SAFE AND HAPPY,
I DID NOT CEASE TO BE.
MOMENTS IN TIME ARE BREIF,
UNTIL WE'LL BE TOGETHER AGAIN,
AS ETERNITY LASTS FOREVER,
OUR LIVES, THEY HAVE NOT END.

Carlton touched many lives; many he saved, more he taught, and many more just by knowing him. His efforts will not be forgotten and his legacy will live on in those of us who knew him and were inspired by him. I will keep your family in my thoughts.
