Denese Carpenter lit a candle

“emarks about My Dear Friend, Preston Taylor Preston was such a special part of my life and will always hold a place in my heart. Our friendship spanned over 45 years—filled with love, laughter, memories, and countless adventures. I still remember attending his very first housewarming. Over the years, life took us in different directions, but we reunited and picked up right where we left off. My prayers go out to his daughter Amber, who he loved and talked about often. Rest in peace❤️ Denese”
