Patrick Carpenter Obituary

Patrick Douglas Carpenter
10/03/1969 - 02/01/2024
Our dear Patrick, beloved husband, son, brother and uncle passed away on February 1. He will be greatly missed by his family, friends and all who knew him.
Pat was born in Alameda, California on a warm Fall day in 1969. He moved to Houston with his family the following year. As a child he enjoyed exploring the trails and lakes of the Sandalwood neighborhood with his pals. Vacations were spent all over California, as well as Hawaii and the Virgin Islands. A favorite was a raft trip through the Grand Canyon.
Patrick was educated in Spring Branch schools and the Tenney School where he met Sylvia Martinez, the love of his life. Following his studies at Blinn College, Patrick and Sylvia were married in December 1994.
Survived by devoted wife Sylvia and mother-in-law Hilda, brother-in-law Steve Martinez and wife Stahr, niece Hailee, nephew Kayne. Treasured dogs Oreo, Sophie and Moo.
Proud parents Bernie and Bob Carpenter, brother John and wife Tammie, brother Allen and wife Linda, and niece Caroline.
Patrick, you are always on our minds and forever in our hearts.
A memorial service will be held in the future.
