James Carpenter Obituary
James Patrick Carpenter, passed away peacefully on October 11, 2025.
He is survived by his beloved siblings George (Nancy) Carpenter, John (Susan) Carpenter, and Catherine (the late Marshall) Pierson. He is a cherished uncle, cousin, and friend to many who will miss him deeply.
He is preceded in passing by his proud parents Curtis and Jean Carpenter and his best friend Peter Schopen.
James was an avid fisherman with no lack of amazing fishing stories to tell to anyone who would listen. He also enjoyed bingo and scratch-offs, hoping for a big win but just enjoyed playing the game. Most importantly, James' family and friends were everything to him.
