Toni Charlene Carpenter
October 21, 1952 - August 18, 2025

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Toni Charlene Carpenter, age 72, who peacefully departed this life on August 18, 2025. Charlene, as she was lovingly known, lived a life filled with devotion to her family and unwavering love for all those who were blessed to know her.

Charlene was the beloved wife of Leonard Carpenter, with whom she shared a lifetime of love and companionship. She was a dedicated mother to her children: Christa Fox and her spouse Tony Fox, Walter Carpenter and his partner Stephanie Pruitt, and Stephanie Harvey and her spouse Michael Harvey.

Her legacy continues through her cherished grandchildren: Amber Scott and her spouse Jeremy Fieseler, the late Allan Scott, Amanda Sayer and her spouse Josh Sayer, Josef Carpenter, Alaina Carpenter, Jackie Carpenter, the late Jacob Carpenter, Mason Harvey, and Emerson Harvey.

Charlene was also blessed to be a great-grandmother to Addison Giron, London Giron, Austin Miller, Landry Scott, the late Levi Fieseler, Lawson Fieseler, Lennox Fieseler, and eagerly awaited the arrival of Baby Girl Fieseler.

Throughout her life, Charlene worked in retail and also helped take care of her beloved grandchildren. However, her greatest joy came from her role as a devoted mother, wife, and matriarch of her family, where her gracious nature and giving spirit touched the lives of all her family and friends. Her nieces, nephews, and cousins held a special place in her heart, and she cherished each relationship with the same steadfast love that defined her character.

Charlene will be remembered for her remarkable qualities: her dedication as a mother and wife, her tenacious spirit, her loving and giving nature, her gracious demeanor, and her unwavering loyalty to those she loved. She had a natural instinct for always taking care of others, putting their needs before her own with selfless devotion. Her family was her world, and the love she poured into their lives will continue to be felt for generations to come.

A celebration of Charlene's life will be held on Thursday, August 21, 2025, at 10:00 AM at Fisher Funeral Home, followed by a graveside service at Georgetown Cemetery.

Pallbearers are Walter Carpenter (son), Mason Harvey (grandson), Josef Carpenter (grandson), Michael Harvey (son-in-law), Tony Fox (son-in-law), Jeremy Fieseler (grandson-in-law).

Flowers may be sent to Fisher Funeral Home.
