Uncle Bill, Nadine, Charlene, and Todd:
What a tremendous void. I miss Mom C. so much and I can only imagine the sadness that you are all going through. She was a wonderful person that taught me so much about being a wife and a mother. She had so much love to give and her grandchildren knew that she was no ordinary Grandma. She was the grandmother that could have wrote the book on how to be the best grandma ever.
She was a huge part of why Kevin & Charlee are such great kids along with all of her other grandchildren, Harmony, Krystal, Chasidy, Natalie & James.
I have such wonderful memories of Grandma Carpenter and I have no doubt that she has made heaven more beautiful and brighter than it already was.

Bill, Charlene, Nadine and Todd, I am so sorry for your great loss. My life, and I'm sure MANY others, were very blessed to have known your Wife and Mom, and to have been a part of her life. She was one of my few good and true friends.I will miss her so- and miss Shery-Berry as she refered to call me often. What a world this would be if their were more remarkable people like her in it!! I will look forward to seeing her again. She was an awsome lady. My prayers will be with you all as you adjust to life without her here. Love always, Shery Dawson
