Brenda Carpenter

January 29, 1950 — September 21, 2025

Brenda Moore Carpenter, 75, beloved wife of Robert Wayne Carpenter, Sr. of Cape Charles, passed away peacefully on Sunday, September 21, 2025.

Born to the late Charles Winfred Moore and Bertha Grose Moore, Brenda lived a life filled with love for her family and the simple joys that brought her happiness. She found great pleasure in gardening, spending time with her grandchildren, and watching them play ball, and traveling, whether it was to Europe, on cruises to the Caribbean, or to the quiet beauty of Amish Country. She delighted in cooking, sewing, reading, and spending time at the beach or fishing. She enjoyed yard sales and thrift stores, decorating, and opening her home to family, especially during the holidays when she lovingly hosted cherished family dinners.

Brenda is survived by her devoted husband, Robert; her daughter, Jennifer Young and husband Jim; her son, Robert Carpenter Jr.; and her precious grandchildren, Riley and Brantley, who were the light of her life.

A graveside service to celebrate Brenda’s life will be held Wednesday, September 24, 2025, at 1:00 p.m., at Cape Charles Cemetery, with Rev. Dr. Charles Peterson officiating.

Online condolences may be sent to the family at www. Doughtyfuneralhome.com.
