I graduated with Carol in '61. It's sad to say we spend our school years with others and suddenly they are gone from our lives eagerly trodding down the path of life.They cross our minds many times through the years and you wonder what has become of them, what are they doing, what have they achieved. All these years I have heard nothing about Carol. I did run into him one time after he moved back but circumstance did not allow us to catch up. One thing I can tell though, from the many comments made here by others, is that Carol was well loved and appreciated by those who knew him. It has been said that he was incredible, gentle, giving, caring, forgiving, astounding, kind, loyal, dedicated, sweet, geniune, charming and always had a smile. It is also said that the measure of a man is by the friends he has. I would say that life met Carol with open arms and smiled favorably upon him. Here's to you, Carol! You had a great journey!

I have truly been in shock for the past couple of days and find it hard to believe you are really, really gone. You were always interested in what I was doing and more than that what my family was doing. We connected... I will miss you more than you know! Love you, Junella

Carol John, as we knew him,when growing up, always brought the brightest light into a room! Even as a child he was the cutest, funniest in the crowd. That lovable laugh,free spirit, joy of life set him apart. A prankster at heart, we never knew when his next act would come...... but that twinkle in his eyes and that smile let us know there was more to come. And we openly waited for it!! He loved the "bayou country" and always enjoyed his visits to Louisiana to visit his country cousins and we in turn waited for him. No more struggles,my dear. You won the final battle!! Rest in peace, C.J. You will be missed/forever loved.

CJ Anderson, what a guy!! I met CJ through a group of friends about 12 or more years ago. I can honestly say I have never met a sweeter, more loyal or genuine human being than CJ Anderson. CJ was always around when I needed to talk and when we both moved to different areas, he would contact me when I least expected it just to say "hello". CJ's smile was a mile wide and he knew no strangers. Anybody in his presence was immediately drawn to him. CJ befriended many people and his smile, charm and personality was infectious. I will miss him, but I will never forget him.

Oh Lord, how my heart aches. CJ was an incredible man. Such a gentle, caring, inviting soul. He loved life. He loved people. He loved to entertain. He was always there to listen, to make you laugh, to feed you! Such a Teddy bear. He treated you with the utmost respect and courtesy, always. I wish I could see him one more time, to speak to him one more time. I wish I could tell him how much I appreciate him, how much his kindness meant to me. How much his spirit touched me. All who knew CJ know what a giving man he was, without wanting anything more than a smile in return. It hurts to know I wont ever see him again. I am thankful I had the opportunity to share a bit of life with him. He may not be in this world with us now, but my memories of CJ will never die.

I am so very sorry to hear of CJ's passing. He was a very dear friend to me for many, many years. Of course my fondest memories of CJ are of the food he cooked and took such pleasure in watching me eat.....and of dancing with him. Dancing with 'Mr. Anderson', as I lovingly referred to him, was like being transported in space and time. He heard the music in a way that other people do not hear it. He guided without pressure, and made his partner look good--which I always believed reflected the truest part of his nature. The depth of his kindness, humor, loyalty and dedication, to me, was mirrored in the way he glided across the dance floor. Sometimes playful with tricky turns, more often with ease and complex grace. When I danced with CJ there were no problems to think about, no worries--in those moments life was effortless. I find this a true gift.
I will always be grateful to CJ for being a friend who was generous with his spirit. He was truly a fine.

My dear CJ, For two men, you & I have had that special bond that never left with distance. Through all times, we laughed, cried, drank, watched many a Cowboy's games, and mostly, loved living. Your kitchen was never empty and your living room never without a soul. I had a special friend that listened to me and helped me and for that, I thank you. You touched many a person and left an indelible mark on us all. May God leave his mark on you now my Friend. Respectfully, Craig
