Mrs. Carter and family, Mr, Carter was my choir teacher at SHS 1962-1964. Under his direction, I was encouraged to try for a music scholarship at CWU. I was also a member of an all-girls ensemble during my senior year. Thank you Mr. Carter for your dedication to music and your students. May God be with your family during this time of grief.

Dear Wilma and Family,
So sorry to hear about Mr. Carter's passing. He was my choir teacher from 1964-66 SHS. I was second Alto. When I moved to Marysville 18 years later I stopped in at a Jackpot and he says Thankyou Vickie Johnson. Couldn't believe it. He was a kind, generous, loving human being.

Dear Wilma and Family,
So sorry to hear about Mr. Carter's passing. He was my choir teacher from 1964-66. I was his second Alto. I can still remember him teaching us the harmony to "BattleHymn of the Republic". It still gives me chills when I sing it. When I moved to Marysville 18 years later

My brother and I had a music teacher named Wendell Carter who was a very good and dedicated teacher. We have pondered over the years about him. Our condolences to his family.
