Not sure what to say?

I will always love you ! Marion

Jimmy, We miss you so very much. Love always, Marion Thomas and Andreas

Now all three brothers, with their wives and three of their sons are together in heavenly peace. I remember my dad, aunts, uncles and cousins with fond memories and I thank them for those. Loved reading Uncle Jim´s obituary again. He was a great, highly intelligent and very interesting man. God bless us all Carpenter clan

Thank you for the memories Uncle Jim! Like my father Dick Carpenter and siblings Kathy and David, I remember adventures in California with his beautiful family that seemed larger than life. My heart goes out to Marion and Cheryl and their loved ones for all their care at the end of his life and for their loss. I wish everyone in Jim's branch of the Carpenter tree well and hope to somehow get to share more memories.

I didn't know you well Uncle Jim, but I have all good memories of visiting you, Aunt Carol, Cheryl, Jim and Jon at your home in Carlsbad. I adored you all-you were all so handsome, active and fun! I remember flying kites with Jon sending little paper messages to heaven up the string and him riding his dirt bike (so exciting!) Jim as Igor chasing us around the pool and Cheryl just being drop dead gorgeous! Riding in your station wagon and the La Brea Tar Pits. Those were the glory days....

I love you Grandpa.

I was always so proud of Jim! He was my "BIG" brother. Smartest man I ever knew! My heart goes out to you, Marion. You really took care of Jim! Hope all remains well for you! I send my love to Cheryl and you. Please stay in touch. Uncle Charlie

Rest In Peace Uncle Jim.

I miss my Uncle Jim now and for as long as I will live. I remember his great wit, humor and wonderment for all things physical, mechanical and geo-political. Jim had a great and sharp problem solving approach to the physical world which I loved to hear. Over the eighties and till the early two thousand, I enjoyed visiting him and the loves of his life in California with my family. Jim was so funny and sarcastic. He loved such quality ladies that I truly love; Carol, Penny and Marion. God,...
