Background
Thank you for reviewing this need. I am posting this with the permission of his immediate family. Henry and I had the joy of sharing five nieces and nephews. Our parents were dear friends. I loved him like a brother for as long as I can remember. I will miss him very much.
While prepared, his untimely passing will leave some minimal funeral expenses. As you may know, Henry was his loving wife's confidant and caretaker. She will have extra expenses to adjust her daily living; thus, this Ever Loved fund being set in place. Please only give if you can and just what you can. All contributions are greatly appreciated and will go towards the expenses mentioned, with any extra going directly to Cheryl for her care. Thank you to one and all. Rest in Peace, our dear friend.

Here is a bit of his obituary:
Henry Lee Carpenter, Jr., of Cleveland, MS, passed away on Sunday, April 25, 2021, at his home. Henry was born January 6, 1963, in Shaw, MS, to Henry Lee Carpenter and Alene Coats Carpenter. Henry was affectionately known as "Jr.." He grew up in Cleveland and graduated from Cleveland High School in 1982, after which he went into the National Guard. On November 28, 1987, in Boyle, MS., Henry married the love of his life, Cheryll Ann Hummel. He later worked for Baxter Laboratories and Pafford EMS. He also worked as a nurse's aide, Cleveland Glass, and a local cement company. One of his greatest joys was being one of Santa's Helpers. He also enjoyed bowling, flying model airplanes, go-kart racing, watching Nascar, dirt track racing, supporting Cleveland High Wildcats, and spending time with friends and family. His larger-than-life personality will be remembered fondly by those whom he left behind.
