Papaw will be missed greatly. He took my puppy, Punkin, when I couldn't provide a home for him anymore. One of the most special things I remember he said to me was at the funeral of his wife, Pearl. He introduced me to people as his prettiest and smartest Granddaughter. I was a medical lab technician at Valdese General Hospital when Papaw was a security guard. I came in for the early morning shift just as he was about to leave from the night shift. We would talk each morning before he made his last security round. I love you, Papaw!!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during your time of grief.  Aunt Lou sorry for the loss of your brother.  We are always here if you need us.             Charles T. Causby's family

My sincerest sympathy to Mr. Carpenter's family, especially his daughter Shirley and her two children--his grandchildren--Thomas(Ernie) and Wendy.  Positive thoughts and energy are yours this day and in the days ahead as you make the necessary adjustments in your lives. --Larry Griffin
