May you find strength

in the love of family

and in the warm embrace

of friends.

It will be the little things

that you will remember,

the quiet moments,

the smiles, the laughter.

And although it may seem

hard right now,

it will be the memories

of these little things

that help to push

away the pain

and bring the smiles

back again.

God Bless you

Also, from the local paper: Donations to the Carlson family can be made through the “Jana Carlson Memorial Fund” at Chase Bank. Donations can also be given through the website, http://www.gofundme.com/5uott8. Also Gift cards for the family are being accepted at Paso Robles Sports Club on Union Road in Paso Robles.


One of my kids goes to school with their daughter, Zyan. Very, very sad situation but the community support has been amazing. The FB page shows hundreds of people getting involved to help the Carlson family in their time of need…makes me proud of fellow Paso Roblans.


My heart goes out to the entire family. So sad, especially being close to Christmas. May

you find peace in your hearts with the love that Jana had for you all.


Oh that is terrible! Very tragic, indeed. Especially at Christmas.


My condolences to the family and I hope the husband will be able to deal with this over time. It is never easy, but this will be even harder.


I’m convinced that there are people who frequent this site and vote down on any comments posted by certain perceived “enemies” just because they, themselves, are miserable mean people at heart.I can’t imagine any other reason why the comment by “rOy” would get a thumbs down. Thumbs down?
