Hi it's me Julie, I cannot believe you have been gone 17 years now. I've been to your stone at skyway Park. I'd never been to visit and leave a flower. After all of these years your passing was one of the hardest moments in my life still.

Dear Carpenter Family,

My wife and I would like to extend our condolences to you for your loss. John and I were part of the same class when joining our fraternity at USF. We become quite close through out this process, and had some great times together. As you know, John was a great guy and someone who you could always count on. He will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege to know him.
