Edward Mansfield Carson

Dawn, I just found out about your Dad and wanted to send my condolences. I know how hard it is. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Cathie

Ed was my first cousin. He was named after my father, Edward S. Mansfield. I didn't know him well due to living in the Chicago area. I do remember going with my parents to Arizona in 1960 and going to his bank. All my dad could say is "look how big his office is!" Needless to say, my dad was very proud of his nephew. My heart goes out to Dawn and Todd. Your second cousin, John Edward Mansfield

Ed Carson was one of the most loving and caring men I have ever known. He was so devoted to his family and friends. Such a gentle sole. Always had a smile on his face and very welcoming. He was my best best friends father and I was lucky enough to know him for many years. I love him and will never forget him. My love and prayers go to the family. Melanie

My prayers go out to the family of Ed Carson. He was one of the most highly respected men I have ever known.

Though his career with the bank reached far loftier heights than mine, Ed...

Our heartfelt condolences to Dawn, Tod and all of Ed's family and friends. I first met Nadine and Ed a few years ago, when helping them set up a fund to enable outstanding Lincoln Northeast High School (Nadine's almma mater) math students to attend summer math camps. Nadine and Ed's generosity has continued to help many students build very successful careers. In every conversation with Nadine or Ed, I knew I was in the light of 2 very respectful, kind and altruistic people. They continue...

My condolences to Mr Carson's family! He was such a caring person and a great boss. I worked for him when Southern Arizona Bank in Tucson became First National, then First Interstate. I especially remember one time that especially stands out of his gracious humor. We were celebrating our 1st year of having ATM's and the Tucson group entertained the large crowd in Phoenix at an evening dinner. We roasted all the banks' executives with poems. 'Mr Carson we've saved for last. As our...

I transferred from First National Bank in Flagstaff to FNB on Central Avenue in April 1959. I was just a 21 year old mortgage lending employee but whenever Mr. Carson was walking down the same hallway, he always nodded his head and said hello. I was greatly impressed by Ed Carson and he was very respected by everyone.
