Was messaged by Tom your brother that you had passed beyond our physical barriers and was saddened to hear it.  You and Bonnie are great recovery family and so many of us enjoyed your Experience, Strength and Hope; your recovery when you lived amongst us and then left.  Actually you have never left brother as long as we have memory.  The fellowship learned that it wasn't alcohol or drugs that took you out and then none of us questioned that it was.  We were deeply affected that you received your 21st anniversary sobriety chip just hours before you passed on and we cheered at this morning's AA by the bay Sunday version meeting which was your home group and for us you knew you intimately we understood that the chip was special because you worked your assholeism off to get it.  Thank you God for the gift that was Carson and thank you Carson for the gifts of God you left with us.  A hui ho...see you later brother...mahalo.   (((((hugs)))))
