Bobby Ray Carpenter

Bob proudly served in the Air Force during the Vietnam War. After his service, he worked for Brown & Root as a project manager, among other jobs, for 30 years.

He was very involved in his community, volunteering for the Evening Pilot Club and the Lifeline Pilot Clubs of Baytown.
