Carey was a one of a kind employee at Johnson & Johnson. He was a cheerful, loving man who went beyond the calling to do what was right. I had a lot of laughs and good times with Carey and even when he was living in the Villa apartments, I saved his lunch for last so I could visit with him longer. He was a joy to behold. Rest in peace, Carey.

My prayers, go out to all of Carey’s family and friends. Carrie was my friend and we work together all the years he was at Johnson and Johnson plus I got him a job at the Walmart distribution center after that and we worked a few years there together before he moved back south to where he was raised. We had a lot of good laughs and good times together throughout his life and we rode dirt bikes together and later on he bought that Harley and we rode street bikes together as well when he was in Whitesboro. I will miss my friend, but he is in a better place now and will have eternal life. God bless my good friend.
