William D. "Billy" Carpenter Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

York, ME - William “Billy” Carpenter, 50, of York, ME passed away at home on Wednesday January 5, 2022 surrounded by his loving family, following a time of illness. Billy is survived by his loving parents, William “Bill” and Virginia “Ginny” (Philbrick) Carpenter. He is also survived by his sister, Kristin Carpenter, of York, ME (formerly of Boynton Beach, FL) and his fiancé, Tammy Lees, of Fitchburg, MA. Few have made a larger difference in the lives of the people around them than Billy did in his 50 years with us. He was a charter student at Learning Skills Academy, in Rye, when it opened in 1985. Over the years, Billy always enjoyed visiting the current students at Learning Skills Academy to encourage them. Encouragement, caring, and friendships were hallmarks of Billy’s life. He made the world a better place, simply by being himself. For ten years, Billy traveled with his dad doing ministry with Motor Racing Outreach on the NASCAR circuit. He was a friend to everyone and was known as the “mayor” of the traveling track community. Billy impacted the lives of all he knew with his caring heart and actions and while we will miss him tremendously, there is so very much to celebrate about his life. The family invites you to please join us for a Memorial Service celebrating Billy’s well-lived life. The service will be held at 2:00 P.M. Sunday, January 23, 2022 at Bethany Church, 500 Breakfast Hill Road, Greenland, NH.
