Julia, Joe, and Jack, We are so sorry to hear of your tragic loss. May you come to find peace and strength in God's grace. Don and I finished residency training the same year and started private practice the same day in Jacksonville, NC. I enjoyed practice with Don and Dr Edwards and Dr Meekhof for over 3 years before we went separate ways. The office was always lively when Dr Carlson was around. He will be missed. Mark and Susan Brooks and family.

Dear Carlson Family,
Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your husband and daddy. I met Dr. Carlson in 1996 about 1 year after I married my wife Tammy, a registered nurse. Dr. Carlson delivered our only child on July 2, 1997. He was so concerned about every aspect of the well being of Tammy during her pregnancy and afterwards. Tammy would always have wonderful things to tell me about Dr. Carlson after seeing him for her regular check-ups. I truly feel your pain and sorry as Tammy passed away December 28, 2007 after a brief battle with cancer. Remember that God is with you as He has strengthened and held me up through my loss! May God bless you and your children as you focus on His grace to heal your heart.
In Christ

I want you to know that I thought the world of him.May God bless you all and give you strength to go through the days ahead.My family will be praying for you all.

I am sorry for the loss of Dr Carlson. He was a great person. He was my physician for 8 years. He took time out of his schedule to talk about any problems of mine. He had a wonderful sense of humor.
He was a caring and kind hearted person. My deepest sympathy go out to the family for I know he will be
greatly missed.

Dear Friends and Family,
I will never be able to express in words the gratitude I have for your compassion, thoughts, many meals and prayers you have sent me and the family during this most difficult of times. I am comforted in knowing how much the community cared for Don. I am also comforted in the knowledge, by many recent conversations he and I had, that he loved the kids and me more than anything in the end. He was just out running errands for us when in an instant our lives changed forever. I am grateful for that last week in the ICU with him that allowed us to communicate and heal what had been damaged but never broken. We always knew we were soul mates to each other. He will live forever in our hearts and the hearts of those he touched. Again, many, many, heartfelt thanks to all!

God bless!

Julia and Boys,
I am so sorry to hear of your tragic loss. Dr. Carlson was my OB/GYN from the time he came to Reidsville. He helped me to conceive after 10 years of trying to have a child, then saw me through 2 miscarriages, the complicated birth of my son and then 5 surgeries. I could never have done any of it without his loving and gentle care. He will be missed terribly. Please find comfort that he is now watching over you all from above.
With Love & Sorrow,
