I feel honored to have met and spent time with Carlton and members of his family a couple years ago. He loved his family, he often spoke highly of his daughters. Although Carlton spent much time outdoors, Carlton had a passion for repairing his home - to create something new from the old. He took pride in welding rail cars and had a zest for life and his motorcycle.
