Hello all you darling Carlson Children and Family,
I only recently heard of the passing of this wonderful man. I too have now lost both of my blessed fathers so I empathize with the great void you must all be feeling. I so want you to know what a joy Darol always was to be around. He really "never met a strange" in the words of Will Rodgers.
He no doubt will be one of the Greeters when we all arrive in Heaven. My deepest sympathy to you. I feel so honored to have had a chance to have known him for as long as I did including all of you.

Kindest of regards. We've lost one more Angel on this earth.

I'll never forget how warmly Darol and Betty welcomed us into their family not just as in-laws but friends and how gladly they embraced our daughter, Susan, as the love of their son's life. Darol was a generous loving man and a fierce competitor. I remember our ping pong matches so well and the last time we played and he realized he couldn't do it any more. Thank God for his peace end with family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your dear family and friends. You were always a joy to be around as you had all the good traits God intended for mankind. Your smile and kindness will be missed. R.I.P.
