Carter Lane Bentley

Carter Lane Bentley “Booger” “Mr. Jones" "Carter Butt” passed away peacefully at home with his family by his side July 21st, 2024, at the age of sixteen. He was the definition of resilient. Being diagnosed with Moyamoya at the age of three following a massive stroke he was not supposed to live to see his fourth birthday. He decided that was not going to be the case Carter did everything on his terms. We had fourteen more amazing years with him. He endured so much in his little life and took it all on headstrong every time, “in typical Carter fashion” is what we would say every time he surprised us.

Even though he could not speak, Carter's eyes said everything he was thinking, his notorious side eye when he didn’t want to be messed with, to his infectious smile when he was happy. He was preceded in death by his brother Tyler, Grandma Maryann, Papa Troy, Uncle Dustin, and his dog Daisy Mae. Fly high and be free baby boy.
