William Attaway Obituary

Attaway, William "Red" Carson Jr.
77, of Phoenix passed away on January 07, 2010. Red chose a fork in the road and continues his journey elsewhere. While here he enjoyed a full "encompass all" itinerary from the profane to the divine. The doorway on his chosen path does not open, it does not close, so we may yet hear his maxims, "Have a nice day, Be good to yourself, You are very important." Bon Voyage Red! Survied by his loving daughter Sharon, his brothers Norman, Pete and Ernie and many divine friends.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Recently, as Carson's memory touched me I decided to look him up and found the obit. I am sure he is laughing that uproarious way and reminding me I am the Devine One myself. He is not gone from us, but seeing us differently, anew. We are the Devine Ones and his time here is a forever blessing. I love you Carson...

Dear Sharon,
Many years ago you were my best bud and although I'm very sad to find you this way; i'm thrilled to see you're well. My sincere condolences for the recent loss of your father and may he talk up a storm with mine wherever they are. I sometimes long for tequila on Tuesdays at Professor Pudgys or Disco dancing the night away at all of our favs (Inferno) etc. Much love and sympathy ... Coleen and Patrick Tobin Jr

To my divine dad, I miss hearing you laugh and making sure that I tell everyone "They are Perfect." I did tell them dad and many of the other things you taught me. I learned so much from you, things that will always be with me. Thank you for being here for me and for your love.
I LOVE YOU DAD!

Dear Divine family of Divine Carson,
I am one of Carson's many admirers. We met in Hava Java coffee shop on Camelback several years ago when Carson saw my Dept. of Peace pin and wanted to know more about my work. Carson supported me as a friend and as a promoter of the Department of Peace campaign, here in Arizona and nationally.
The last email I received from Carson was on Dec. 16. It was a Christmas greeting in which he stated: "I Am making a conscious intention to wish Everyone a Merry Christmas this year ...
My way of saying that I am celebrating
the birth Of Christ in You and Everyone."
Divine Carson, our journey continues...
Hugs of peace and love, Divine Terri
