Kendall Smith Carson

To add to my previous comments, I named my son Carson in his memory.

I miss you Kenny poo. I think about you every day. I know you'd love my new husband, Andrew. Wish I could have danced with you at my wedding. I love you so much.

I remember the first time I met Kendall Carson. I was amazed at how easily he smiled, and had everyone else laughing. He was always happy and busy helping others. I feel priveleged to have learned from his great example.

When I think of Carson, I think of one of the funniest guys I have ever met. On top of that his talent and personality. I also had a chance to meet his father, also a outstanding gentleman. We all know where Carson is and what he is doing, although tragic, there is a reason for his loss, which we will all soon find out. My thoughts and prayers are with the Carson family. With love...

Kendall Carson is one of the most influencial people of my life. I had the pleasure of finishing my mission with him as my zone leader. His devotion to the panamian people and to members of his zone continue to inspire me in my life now. My deepest condolences to his family

I also went to Olympus High School with Kendall and was stunned and saddened to read in the newspaper of his passing. I will always remember Kendall for the way that he was so genuinely friendly and kind to everyone he met. We are all blessed to have had the chance to come in contact with such a wonderful person.

I was in "The Miracle Worker" at Olympus High School with Kendall. He was also in several of my school dance groups. He was one of the most talented, nicest, and funniest guys I knew. It's nice to read that Kendall had so many great experiences in his life and did so many important things. He is truly meant for a greater world than this. My prayers and condolences for the family. God Bless.

Elder Kendall Carson and I were companions in San Blas. I loved Elder Carson. He taught me a lot about being a missionary, Tuleguya and Playing the flutes. My favorite time with him was playing the flutes every day at Joe´s house. He loved the Kuna people. He was always concerned for their welfare. He has made a profound influence in my life and in the lives of the Kuna people. He will be missed by all who knew him.
