Pat & Bill - I was so very sorry to hear of John's passing. You'll remember me as Tim's mom who shared the Burns Park jeep sinking adventure with you. We share a sad common bond as we both have lost our sons. Tim passed on 9/5/03 at the age of 23. I will pray for you, as well as for John's wife and precious little boys. When you are able, you might consider the Bereaved Parents Group which meets monthly in Little Rock. There's always a shoulder to cry on and people who DO know how you feel. I pray for you.

Our family is deeply saddened by the unexpected death of John Carlton. Our brief time of knowing him, and his family has blessed our lives, and we will cherish what that has meant to us. Life will be different without him, however Life has been different because of him.

Go in grace, John.

Little did we know that morning
What sorrow the day would bring.
Our loss was great, the shock severe
To part with one we loved so dear.
We could not say our last farewell
Or even say good-bye
For you were gone before we knew
And only God knows why.

With sincerest and deepest sympathy to all of John's family and friends who's hearts are broken from this unimaginable loss. Time is truly standing still today.

I was so saddened to hear of John's passing. One of my best memories of John was Joe letting him drive in CBC Nashville parking lot when he was just a little boy. My memories of John & your entire family will always have a special place in my heart, as you all were such a big part of mine & Ronald's life for over 25 years. Please know your entire family is in my thoughts & prayers. May your faith in our Lord help get you through this time of your life.
