Richard "Ricky" Carpenter

Richard “Ricky” Carl Carpenter, 44, passed away of natural causes unexpectedly in his home on Wednesday, April 13th 2022. He was born on February 6th, 1978 in Alliance, Ohio. He is the son of Richard E. Carpenter and LuAnn Wright.

Ricky grew up in Beloit, Ohio and attended West Branch and Southern Local Schools. He then graduated from the Naval Training Center in Great Lakes, Illinois. He was aboard the U.S.S. Roosevelt- which set the record for most days at sea, 160 days.

Ricky lived his life to the fullest and was the life of the party. He fiercely loved his family, friends, animals, and anything outdoorsy. He was an avid Cleveland Browns and Indians fan. He enjoyed concerts with his longtime friend of 30 years, Dathan Hunt. He will be greatly missed by anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him and his huge personality.

Ricky is survived by his Mother, LuAnn Wright, and Father, Richard Carpenter; son Colin; sisters Melissa Brown (John DeSarro) and Lory Smith (Mike Smith); nieces Brianna and Makenzy; nephews James, Colton, and Brayden; great nephew Jhett, and two dogs Popeye and Lucy.

Ricky was greeted in heaven by his grandparents, niece and nephew, and his dog Chumley.

There will be a celebration of his life at a later date. Friends and family may share their online condolences at www.deansfuneralhome.com. Arrangements are entrusted to Dean's Funeral Home Sebring, Ohio.
