Uncle Biggie - You got live a very full life, never a dull moment for the extra ordinary of humans who chose less eventful circumstances.. You were the last out of the Carpenter Brood of Baby Boomers - I'm truly glad you were able to hang around all of your children, grandbabies, nieces and nephews cousins and honorary family members. As I type out my memory, or message to you - I have a smile upon my face know what indelible mark you left upon all of our hearts... It's with a selfish heart I reluctantly say bye for now as you make that transition to the other side.. You will be sorely missed Unk -
I am so thrilled you will be reunited with Nannie, Barbara, Allen Sr.,Eunice, & Daddy ( Jerry)
XO

I am so glad that we visited in your home just after Thanksgiving. Having the opportunity to take a walk back in time and to discuss the racial inequities when you two were together.
Rest in peace!
