Ray was my Mom’s Dad, our Grandpa. She preceded him in death. We were told the memorial was delayed until Little Ray was strong enough to plan the service. I live in Sarasota FL and would like to attend.

I'm Blake Carpenter grandson Ray Tibbs, when they wrote this obituary and remembering they must have forgot his daughter Susan who Grandpa Ray lived with from I'd say 96 to maybe 99 out in the estates in North Port until he moved to punta Gorda.... It's not like we were absent in our grandfather's life... put some how they must have neglected to mention the rest of his family on here like we don't matter from his first wife Patricia and their son Charles who passed away and my mother Susan who passed away... and then they wonder why I don't stay in touch... even share the room and that house with Grandpa because there was only a four bedroom house and every room was taken so I shared a room with him while he was there... but yet they can't even put my mother and his remembrance obituary..
