In Memory of Sgt Alexander P Carter USMC
February 15, 1992- March 3, 2025
“Alex served in the Marine Corps for five years as a C-130 Crewmaster. He was strong and determined in anything he attempted to accomplish. He was a graduate of the University of North Carolina in Charlotte, NC. He majored in exercise science with a minor in kinesiology. He was a handsome blue-eyed man – hard working and ethical in all he did. Most importantly he was my son and his hugs are missed greatly. He was a brother and friend to many. I hope he is at peace with our Lord whom he believed and trusted in.” Shared by his mother, Rose.
Born on February 15, 1992, at Charlotte Memorial Hospital, Alex was a proud graduate of Maryville High School in Maryville, TN, where he lettered in wrestling.
