– On Wednesday, November 30, 2022, Kirby McCord Carpenter, who was 36 years old and lived in Tippah County, passed away unexpectedly at his residence. The celebration of Kirby’s life will take place at the Heritage Chapel of the Ripley Funeral Home on Saturday, December 17, 2022, at two o’clock in the afternoon. Lebanon Baptist Church Cemetery is going to be the location of the funeral service. Kirby and his mother, Mattie Jane Michael Jones (Dwayne), and his father, Jerry Carpenter (Tammy), welcomed their son into the world on May 23, 1986 in Tupelo, Mississippi.
He had graduated from Kossuth High School and was a proud member of the United States Marine Corps. Throughout the majority of his life, Kirby was a successful businessman. He owned and managed two prosperous enterprises, both of which he eventually sold, as well as a large number of rental properties. At the present time, he was the owner and operator of Mississippi Gold, Silver, and Coin Exchange. Each and every person who knew Kirby considered him a friend. He enjoyed life to the fullest, put in a lot of effort, loved people, and while doing all of that, he always looked sharp.
In his spare time, he enjoyed road trips, motorcycles, fast automobiles, and trying out new foods. foods that are very spicy, as well as fishing. Relaxing with friends and family while listening to amazing music or riding any backroad was one of the most favorite things to do that I enjoyed doing. The accomplishments that brought him the most joy and satisfaction were his children.
They were his greatest source of pride. Even though our hearts are broken, we take comfort in the knowledge that we will be able to see Kirby again in the future. He was a parent who was truly remarkable.
For the day of Friday, December 16, 2022, the Ripley Funeral Home will be open from two o’clock to eight o’clock.
