I have thought and thought and I don't know if I can find the words that could possibly describe Carter. He was just an "Original".
Harry and I met your Mom, Pat, and your Dad about ten years ago. We had just moved into the neighborhood. We immediately were taken with them. What an absolutely lovely couple!! We became friends almost immediately.
Your parents have lived such a unusual and fantastic life together. Hard at times, I am sure, but they both enjoy an adventure. Goodness, did they ever have one. We never stopped enjoying your Dad's stories.
He always had a project going and it was always something that was of interest. He was an authority on Texas History and his stories about his Dad kept us all enthralled.
He loved to entertain and share his wonderful collection of wine. Everyone that was fortunate enough to be a guest in their home came away with stories to tell their friends and family.
He had a adventure while he was here in this life. I am sure that he is already planning another adventure in Heaven. Don't you know that he has the Angels in a Whirl.
What a wonderful legacy and what a wonderful family.
