Obituary for my father. Richard Warner Carlson died at 84 on March 24, 2025 at home in Boca Grande, Florida after six weeks of illness. He refused all painkillers to the end and left this world with dignity and clarity, holding the hands of his children with his dogs at his feet. He was born February 10, 1941 at Massachusetts General Hospital to a 15-year-old Swedish-speaking girl and placed in the Home for Little Wanderers in Boston, where he developed rickets from malnutrition. His legs were bent for the rest of his life. After years in foster homes, he was placed with the Carlson family in Norwood, Mass. His adoptive father, a tannery manager, died when he was 12 and he stopped attending school regularly. At 17, he was jailed for car theft, thrown out of high school for the second time, and enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps. In 1962, in search of adventure, he drove to California. He spent a year as a merchant seaman on the SS Washington Bear, transporting cargo to ports in the Orient, and then became a reporter. Over the next decade, he was a copy boy at the LA Times, a wire service reporter for UPI and an investigative reporter and anchor for ABC News, covering the upheaval of the period. He knew virtually every compelling figure of the time, including Jim Jones, Patty Hearst, Eric Hoffer, Jerry Garcia, as well as Mafia leaders and members of the Manson Family. In 1965, he was badly injured reporting from the Watts riots in Los Angeles. By 1975, he was married with two small boys, when his wife departed for Europe and didn’t return. He threw himself into raising his boys, whom he often brought with him on reporting trips. At home, he educated them during three-hour dinners on topics that ranged from the French Revolution to Bolshevik Russia, PG Wodehouse, the history of the American Indian and, always, the eternal and unchanging nature of people. He was a free thinker and a compulsive book reader, including at red lights. He left a library of thousands of books, most dog-eared and filled with marginalia. His reading and life experiences convinced him that God is real. He had an outlaw spirit tempered by decency. In 1979, he married the love of his life, Patricia Swanson. They were together for 44 years, all of them happy. She died sixteen months before he did and he mourned her every day. In 1985, he moved to Washington to work for the Reagan Administration. He spent five years as the director of the Voice of America, and then moved to the Seychelles as the US ambassador. In 1992, he became the CEO of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and later ran a division of King World television. The last 25 years of his life were spent in work whose details were never completely clear to his family, but that was clearly interesting. He worked in dozens of countries and breakaway republics around the world, and was involved in countless intrigues. He knew a number of colorful national leaders, including Rafic Hariri of Lebanon, Aslan Abashidze of Adjara, Mobutu Sese Seko of Zaire, and whomever runs Somaliland. He was a fundamentally nonjudgmental person who was impossible to shock, and he described them all with amused affection. He spoke to his sons every day and had lunch with them once a week for thirty years at the Metropolitan Club in Washington, always prefaced by a dice game. Throughout his life he fervently loved dogs. Richard W. Carlson is survived by his sons, Tucker and Buckley, his beloved daughter-in-law Susie, and five grandchildren. He was the toughest human being anyone in his family ever knew, and also the kindest and most loyal. RIP.

Is anybody besides me gravely concerned for President Trump’s and the First Lady’s safety during the inaugural walk? The insane left has tried everything to thwart the will of the people, and they will stop at nothing.

RIP

@yaelbt God Bless!! What a hero!! My Prayers and thoughts go out to her family and friends!🙏🙏❤️❤️

This is Captain Sahar, a commander in an Iron Dome battery. On 10/7 she was volunteering for weekend duty to relieve a friend. When all bell broke loose that day, she intercepted about 190 rockets from Hamas aimed at residents of southern Israel. When they ran out of intercepter missiles, they drove to get new ones, despite warnings that the area is full of terrorists. Sahar was murdered on her way to resupply ammo that would save others. May she rest in peace 🙏🇮🇱

@marklevinshow This is so horrifying

@KirkHerbstreit Prayers for Zak and your family!!🙏🙏🙏 God Bless

My son Zak is in the hospital and wanted me to send this note out. I just wanted to add how much we appreciate so many people reaching out concerned about his well being. He has a long journey ahead of him. “I have had a bit of a setback these past couple of weeks. Not feeling right. Culminated with tests results this past Friday that forced me into the hospital. I have some of the best cardiologists looking after me, and I am beyond appreciative. We are doing a number of tests and conjuring a plan to ensure that I will be able to be back to feeling normal again. I appreciate the overwhelming support over the past couple of days. I am feeling good and hope to be out of the hospital soon.”

@melissacousino @American_Heart @s_deferranti @skpasquali Mental health a focus! Great news and thanks for all the hard work!

📣 The @American_Heart Scientific Statement is a strong call to action for cardiologists and medical caregivers, mental health professionals, and the #CHD community to prioritize #mentalhealth through greater care, research, and advocacy. The time to act is now.

5. Although psychological well-being is fundamental to living a healthy and fulfilling life, the healthcare system often falls well short of identifying, addressing, and treating psychological stress among those living with congenital #heartdisease

4. Studies show that most children, young people, and adults with CHD who experience high levels of psychological distress have NOT received timely #mentalhealth treatment (psychotherapy or psychotropic medication) or other appropriate interventions.
