LeBlanc-Funeral service will be held for Jerry Stanton Carpenter,
age 72, on Wednesday, April 6, 2011 at 2pm in St. Philip Neri 
Catholic Church. Father Carlos Garcia will officiate. Visitation

Tuesday, April 5, 2011 from 5-9pm with a vigil service

LeBlanc having returned to this area after living for several 
years in New Mexico. He was a member of St. Philip Neri Catholic 
Church and was a member of the Knights of Columbus. He was an 
excellent horseman-having a love for horses since he was a small 
child. Not only did he enjoy riding but was a talented trainer of 
race horses and loved riding in trail rides, especially in the 
mountains. He also had a love for woodworking, crafting fine 
pieces from the beginning-gathering the wood from the mountains,
milling it himself, and crafting beautiful treasures. He was 
especially proud of the log cabin home he built for he and his 
wife. He was a devoted husband as well as a loving dad and 
grandpaw who will be missed by all who knew and loved him. 
Survivors include his loving wife of 55 years, Mary Ann 
Carpenter; his daughters, Donna Chambers and husband, Frank of 
LeBlanc, Sylvia Carpenter-Pitre of Kinder, and Tyrella Robinson 
and husband, Michael of Tolar, Texas; one sister, Kathy Daly and 
husband, Pat of Lafayette; ten grandchildren; and ten great-
grandchildren. Jerry is preceded in death by his parents, Walter 
and Sylvia Carpenter, his brother, Danny Carpenter, and his son, 
Billy Joe Carpenter.
