Mrs. Carter worked as a beautician for 24 years, owning her own shop and was employed by Quinco in Bolivar from 1984-1996. A life-long member of Toone Baptist Church, she sang in the choir and kept the nursery for several years. She began her schooling at Cloverport and later attended Toone School where she enjoyed playing basketball. She was graduate of McCollum and Ross School of Cosmetology and, due to her talented "green thumb", was known for her beautiful flowers. Most of all, she loved caring and cooking for her family. Mrs. Carter was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star.
