Oh God, Jane it is 2025 and I just read about Dr Carlson death. I had worked for him in his very first office and helped him set up his office in Hoover. I so admired and respected him and you. I remember when I moved to Atlanta you called me and wanted me to come back to help John. It broke my heart that that couldn't happen. My name at that time was Phyllis Simpson. I now live in Knoxville TN. with my husband Ralph. Lee died several years after John. My prayers and thought go out to you...

I attended Inglenook School with Johnny. Will always remember what a cute and fun person he was.

I worked for Dr. Carlson for several years. I just wanted to send my love and prayers to Jane and the kids. Kellee

I went to Inglenook grammar school with Johnny. He was also my neighbor. He was so much fun and could draw well. In the 6th grade he used to draw me cartoon pictures and we would giggle all day. My nickname to him was "freak". Everytime I would see him he would yell "eek a freak from Village Creek". My friend, Betty Jean Self Hogue was also his friend. He called her pretzel. He will always stand out in my mind as being so talented and so much fun.
