December 11, 2023 at 10:49 pmMy condolences to you and your family. I have been working with Caron on a work project since April, and we talked almost daily, mostly about work, but once in a while about other things that were going on. He mentioned how excited he was to be able to see the Raiders – Steelers game just a few weeks ago as a life-long Steelers fan. Carson has always been kind, friendly, helpful. He’s really good at what he does, and he knows a lot (and don’t mind sharing). I cannot have a better partner on a project than Carson, and he will sorely missed.

December 13, 2023 at 3:28 amI had the privilege of learning from and working with Carson for a number of years at LANDesk/Ivanti. He was usually the first person sought whenever a there was a deep technical issue that needed to be solved. His knowledge was unmatched. He was a great person who others were drawn too because of he always had a positive outlook and calm demeanor regardless of the circumstance. I enjoyed playing fantasy football with him and always appreciated his wittiness and the way he carried himself. I will always be grateful for what he taught me. My thoughts and prayers to his beautiful family. He will be missed!

December 14, 2023 at 4:03 pmCarson was the kind of guy that so many people looked to for knowledge, guidance, and a good laugh. I used to call him the Oracle. People would frequently approach him with all manner of questions, whether it be game or technology related, he would gladly help them. I miss the days we’d go to lunch together and discuss the various topics on our minds. I’ll miss his snarky humor, his quick wit, and overall uplifting presence. I’m grateful for him teaching me so many things that helped me in my life. Thank you, Carson, you’ll be missed, loved, and respected.
