In Loving Memory of Captain William Carter
Captain William Carter is heroic, dynamic, courageous, and a loving individual
who improved the quality of life for numerous individuals suffering from sickle
cell disease. Captain Carter a sickle cell survivor received a successful bone
marrow transplant at the age of 15 and was cured of Sickle Cell Disease. He
went on to live a committed and dedicated life helping others in the City of
Austin and surrounding areas by being a testimony and an example of what
God can do. He had a passion and love for the Sickle Cell Community and
was an invaluable role model, advisor, Chaplain, and mentor for the Marc
Thomas Sickle Cell Foundation. Captain Carter’s life inspired others suffering
from this life threatening blood disease to be successful and live with purpose
and righteously. Captain Carter served in the United States Army and was
going to be separated from his Military agreement in 2009. At that time he
was going to assume a greater role of the Marc Thomas Sickle Foundation.
Captain Carter was also going to be nominated to serve on the United States
Health and Human Services Advisory Board on Blood Safety and Availability.
The Sickle Cell Community and the Citizens of Austin recognize and commend
this outstanding, exemplary and noble man for his legacy and service to the
Citizens of Austin and The Marc Thomas Sickle Cell Foundation. We miss,
love, and cherish our beloved Captain William Carter.
We continue to pray for his wonderful family who gave us such a precious
gift; his wife Valerie Carter, his parents Mr. and Mrs. William Carter, his sisters
and extended family.
