It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved Honey, whose greatest joy in life was her grandchildren and the family she held so close. Honey was the steady presence, the rock who grounded us all — a source of unwavering love, strength, and kindness.
To her grandchildren, she was more than a grandmother — she was a constant source of warmth, laughter, and guidance. Her eyes would light up at the sound of their voices, and her love for them knew no bounds. She built a legacy of love and selflessness, poured into every story shared, every birthday remembered, every hug given without hesitation.
To her friends and extended family, Honey was the person you called when life felt too heavy. She listened without judgment, helped without question, and loved without condition. Her door was always open, her coffee always hot, and her heart always full.
Honey leaves behind a family that will forever cherish her memory and strive to carry forward the grace, loyalty, and quiet strength that defined her. She is survived by her devoted husband, Tommy Pace, her mother, Barbara Lentz, two daughters, Whitney Rickman and Destin Boyd (Buck), and two sons, Joseph Pace and Dillan Kyzar (Shelby). She leaves a legacy of love to her six grandchildren, CJ Rickman, Jillian Adams, Eleana Reeves, McCoy Kyzar, Rylee Boyd, and Winnie Boyd. She is also survived by two brothers, Billy Carpenter (Lynn) and Randy Carpenter (Beverly) and a sister, Nancy Stockton (Wes).
Honey is preceded in death by her father, Billy Carpenter and a sister, Michelle Collett.
