John Nesbit Carter

All are invited to join us in celebrating the life of John at 4:00PM on August 28th, 2025 at 300 Senate at Senate´s End in Columbia, S.C.

I knew Nesbit & Minerva when I was a child in the late `40s. Then knew John when he was a communicant of Prince George Church, in Georgetown.
My condolences to John´s family.

I had the privilege of knowing John when he found recovery in Georgetown. He was a good man and always had a wonderful way of making others happy when they were with him. John and I shared one exceptional moment in that we were together at the detention center to see a client when we learned that the World Trade Centers had been hit been hit. Sending sincere condolences to Patty and the girls.

Patty, it was a true privilege to get to know John. I loved his stories and his passion for life. Above all else, I love the love you had for each other. It was a precious thing to be in the presence of. My heart goes out to you, the girls, and the grandchildren. I am sending you all an abundance of love and praying for you all.

My dear friend John:
It was a sincere privilege to be your neighbor in Lexington. Thank you for the many years of friendship and the great conversations. I will never forget the times you and I used that (it seemed like) 1000 lb grass aerator in our yards. Each and every day, you made the lives of the Torbett family that much better. Thank you, God bless you and your wonderful family. Until we meet again my friend... Shawn

Mr. John was an amazing man! I became friends with his daughter Caitie in highschool and I'm soooo glad I got to see and chat with Mr. John at her wedding. Rock on Mr. John going to blast a good song for you! Sending Mrs. Pat and the family love .

John was a great neighbor! He was always encouraging and loved seeing our kids play in the front yard. We will miss him dearly. Kevin & Andrea Thumpston

I won't forget his last share...he remained so Humble & I'm glad he got Hugs & Love from all that were there that Saturday night.

John had a natural charm and charisma. He was never at a loss for words, always full of life, and such a joy to be with. He will be deeply missed by everyone who knew him. I´ll be turning up "Stairway to Heaven" so we can all sing along with John in our hearts.
