Raymond Andrew Carlson

It can be so hard to face the first year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through.

My parents and Dr. & Mrs. Gwen Carlson were supposed to go to a football game in Houston on Saturday, 9/24/1966. I decided to make my entrance into the world that day, so my parents didn't make it to the game. Dr. Carlson, however, delivered me that afternoon and was still able to make the game! My grandmother was a nurse in his office for several years, and my parents bowled with the Carlsons on a bowling league. Such sweet memories of our beloved town doctor that took care of all of Vinton. Love and prayers sent to Mrs. Gwen and the Carlson family

Heaven has welcomed another with a choir of Angels singing praise. Condolences to the entire Family may the hand of God give them strength during this difficult time. May they know that now Dr. Carlson is no longer in pain but up in heaven rejoicing. Their will be many good memories & will surely be missed.

So sorry to hear this he delivered me and my sister. He very good dr. Took me long time to find family dr after he retired

He was a good Doctor and took care of all of us

Dr Carlson was the first doctor I remember from my childhood. Thanks for being a positive influence. Rest In Peace !

My daughters and I are saddened to learn of Dr. Carlson's death. He was good to our family, and we loved him dearly.

May God's loving kindness comfort you and help you through this very sad time
