| Name: | Velma & Vince Loy | | City: | Reidsville, NC | | Message: | Our deepest sympathy to the family of Carlton. It was our privilege to see Carlton last at a bluegrass festival a few years ago. He had not lost his sense of gab nor of poetry. My husband attended bluegrass festivals at Camp Springs and has reminisced about them quite often. Carlton will be missed around Reidsville and the character he brought to the town. |

| Name: | David Hershey-Webb | | City: | New York | | Message: | Thank you Carlton for teaching me to really listen to music. I will never forget the way you showed me the goosebumps on your arms while we listened to Reno and Smiley and to Bill Monroe singing "I Hear a Sweet Voice Calling." We traveled a few miles together in your blue Cadillac as you told me your stories of writing songs for Conway Twitty and shared your wild theories about everything imaginable. You were brilliant and passionate and gave so much to the world and I was so fortunate to be a part of your life for a short time. Much love to your family. Rest in Peace and in Music my friend! |

I am so glad I was able to speak with Carlton one last time a few weeks ago. I will always remember our conversations about music and Carlton's early association with my old Boss, Bill Monroe. Rest in peace, old friend.

| Name: | Kathi Fox | | City: | Reidsville NC | | Message: | I will miss our long chats where he'd share his ideas about how numbers and notes relate and some new song he'd just written in his mind. He'd talk with tears in his eyes about how lucky he was to have so much love in his life. Such a sweet soul... |
