Happy Belated Birthday Carlton!

I didn´t forget your birthday on May 9, 2023. Kim called me and informed me that Carlton Jr. Daa Haudd, Lee Lee, the grandchildren and great-grandchildren were all going to your grave site to celebrate your Birthday. I decided to wait and send you a message on my birthday which is today, May 18, 2023.

Carlton, 32 years ago, you, Kim, Mother, Patricia, Anna, Paula, my neighbors, and some of my good friends celebrated my birthday. We all had an amazing time. Dannis gave me the okay to pull out all the bells and whistles. The theme was Casino Night, the party was catered,
(Brents Deli) we had waiter, waitress, bartenders, and prizes everyone could win and great music. Having my birthday at home in my backyard was the best birthday I ever had. I will never forget my 40th Birthday it was awesome!!

Well, you´re 78 years old. I know you and all the family celebrated and had a good dinner that Mother, Mom Stewart, Anna, and Aunt Alyce prepared, I´m sure you, Daddy and Dwayne were sipping on some Dom Perignon, Janice and Alyce had water or 7UP. I hope you´re enjoying the Red Roses we left you. Carlton you are a shining light that never dims.
While in Vegas we saw Silk Sonic, their show was awesome, electrifying fantastic and very Memorable. All the fans were on there feet the whole show, my favorite song is Keep the Door Open.

Here is a picture of you and Kim on your 60th birthday in 2004 when Dannis and I took you both to see Celine Dion’s concert. I can remember us all walking down Las Vegas Stripe and people running up to you wanting to take a picture with you. That was so exciting and amazing, they thought you were a star, and you played the part oh so well. I’m also posting one of those pictures.

I thought it would be appropriate to put Janice's Headstone on your Legacy profile. You made it for her 59 years ago while you were in High School. It is still on her grave site (Amazing). Mom and Daddy were so proud of you and your gift you created for our baby sister.

Hi Big Brother, i truly miss you. Time is getting close to that 1 year mark, some days its so very hard not to be able to call and talk to you about whay ever. I cry a lot sometimes and then God talks to me and lets me know he is here with me and you are doing just fine. My My My i really miss you Brother. Your sis anna marie

March 23, 2012

Hey Big Brother,

I look at Mother (Arlena), Daddy (Herman), Grandmother (Mom Stewart Patterson). Brother (Dwayne) Grandmother (Paula Porter) Aunt ( Alice Matthew) and you everyday. I wish I had pictures of our two baby sisters that died. (Janice Denise and Alyce Pauline) they both would be in their 50's. Janice's Headstone that you made in 1959 at Gersmeyer Technical High School still looks very good. I remember you saying if you're going to do something do it right the first time and be the best that you can be.

Well, Carlton a year ago today I was with you while you were still talking and walking, but doing it very slowly and in excruciation burning pain in your Abdomen and stomach! You were still keeping a very positive attitude and still being the man of wisdom. I remember you telling me to bring you a coffee from Starbucks (sweet with whip cream toping)!


I was glad that your brother in-law and I was able to spend a few days with you. And the three of us having dinner together was great, I cherished every moment.

Enjoy the Flowers.
Love your baby sister

Happy Valentine's Day!
