Carl Johnson

Sympathies and thoughts to the family. Im so sorry for your loss.

A belated sympathy card is in the mail...struggled with the proper words to express my sorrow. I have been thinking of the Johnson family in these difficult times.
I will surely hold on to all the wonderful memories.
* I was an invited tennis guest at his neighbor's clay court which was nestled among fields and bordered by mountains.
Carl, dressed in white, would serve up his quick wit along with a flat (made - for - Wimbledon grass) - no spin, blistering forehand.
* Later, we...

I am so sorry for the loss of such a great human being!
I was recently fortunate enough to have a long conversation with Carl about the good old days growing up on "the hill".
we shared some great stories and did a lot of laughing. Carl`s laugh was infectious and will remain with me for the rest of my life...and beyond!
Rest in peace brother Carl, you will always be with us!

Sorry for the loss of your love one, may you find comfort in knowing that those who have passed on in death God keeps in his memory because they are precious in his eyes. Psalms 116:15.

May the God of all comfort sustain your family during the days ahead Psalms 119:76

My heart goes out to Marianne, John, and Kirsten. I'll miss my brother Carl. I'll miss the encouragement he gave me on the tennis circuit. I'll miss the support he gave me with all my endeavors, including writing. Carl often shared ideas with me on what he thought I might write about. He was looking forward to my next book, be it a novel, poetry book, or children's book. Carl told me that of all the poems I've written, Stone and Wood was his favorite. I will include this poem in my next book...

So sorry to hear of Carl's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you guys during this difficult time. I will remember all the good times we had together.
