Tony Carter was a gentle soul who had a peaceful smile for everyone. He had aspirations and dreams that engaged others and helped them to sense belonging and part of something special. He loved his wife Valerie and adored his sons of whom he was very proud. His voice and love of life will be missed. Bless you Tony and may you rest in peace. Your brother in Christ, Greg Baker.
