Life Reflection
Dwight Edward Carson was born to the parents of Willie Lee Carson and Amy Cotell Burton-Carson on June 27, 1951, in Dallas, TX. Post high school, Mr. Carson joined the U.S. Army and served as an Automotive Repair Parts Specialist during the Vietnam War. After military service, he studied at Cedar Valley College earning a certificate/license in HVAC repair; worked as a supervisor with Taylor Publishing Company for 10 years, and lastly as a service technician with Superclean for 26 years. Although Mr. Carson had an abundant work life, he prioritized quality time with family and friends. He was an available, loving father and husband that you could count on to answer or return your phone call. Mr. Carson occasionally attended Emmanuel New Life Fellowship church under the leadership of Pastor Earnest and Rosa Striggers and was affectionately known as the neighborhood’s handy man before ascending to his divine home on July 26, 2024.
