Carlton was a mechanic with John Deere and Princess Anne Equipment for 26 years. He assisted many local farmers and neighbors for years, rarely accepting funds, only gratitude. He loved his family and loved to cook for them. He made the best spaghetti ever. He loved the outdoors, his tractors and working in the garden. He always offered his home to those in need. He was the best Daddy and Granddaddy to many, he was well respected by his community and Carlton will be sadly missed by his family and all that knew him.

The family will be receiving visitors Sunday, 8/3/2014 from 5-7pm at the Smith and Williams funeral home located at 4889 Princess Anne Rd. The funeral service will be Monday 8/4/2014 at 12pm at the same location with a graveside service following at Rosewood Memorial Park.
