Robert K. Carter, 71, of Royal Palm Beach, FL, passed away on December 10th, 2020 after a courageous battle with Dementia. Bob was the loving husband of Bonnie E. Carter with whom he had been married to for 40 years. Bob was born in Frankfurt, Germany and grew up in Philadelphia and Southampton, PA, later moving to Royal Palm Beach, Florida. Bob was the successful owner of B. Carter Trucking and Excavating, Inc. for almost 20 years, until which time he decided to focus on real estate where he enjoyed a very successful career, until finally retiring in 2017.
Bob was extremely dedicated to his family and was always willing to help anyone in need. He was a successful and humble self-made man with a strong work ethic and was determined to teach his children the importance of providing a great life for their family. Bob was very generous and good-hearted and was known for his Christmas and holiday decorations which all his neighbors and family enjoyed. Bob absolutely loved fishing and boating and when he had time, would take his family and friends out on his boat or spend time fishing from the dock or in the canal. Bob always spoke about how proud he was of his son’s, grandchildren and daughter in-law’s.
Bob was predeceased by his mother Anna and his father Robert. Bob is survived by his wife Bonnie, two sons Robert and Michael, one stepson Mark, several grandchildren; Robert, Kyla, Brendan, Anthony and Maria, and one brother Hans. Bob will be missed by his family with memories to cherish. Never to be forgotten and loved forever and always. We are remembering Bob with a contribution to the Lewy Body Dementia Association.
