BARBARA  E. CARPENTER

Barbara E. “Bobbie” Carpenter, 79, of Akron, Ohio, passed away February 9, 2020.  Born in Norfolk, Virginia August 6, 1940, she was the daughter of the late Henry Parker and Frances Alvey Parker.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her son, Brian Carpenter and grandson, Eric Carpenter-Garrett.

Gone, but not forgotten, Barbara’s memory will live on in those who survive; daughter, Tamatha (Kenneth) Ballew of Akron; son, David (Debbie) Carpenter of Alliance; grandchildren, Charles, David, Crystal, Katie, and Paige; many great-grandchildren, relatives, and friends.

A devoted mother and grandmother, Barbara enjoyed traveling and nature.  Her compassion and warm heart led her to work in health care for many years and was employed by Mature Services, helping seniors remain independent in their own homes and active within their communities.
