Skip and Eileen Carpenter
Skip and Eileen have been married 30 years and are the parents of Sharks team member Kelly and college age son Cameron. Eileen's father (and avid Cubs fan) lives with them as well. They moved to Florida from the Chicago area 23 years ago when they hung up their snow shovels for good!
Skip is retired and an avid golfer (when the boss lets him), volunteers at Metropolitan Ministries during the week and travels annually as part of a mission team to serve at a center for orphans of the HIV-AIDS epidemic in rural South Africa.
Eileen is a business coach for financial advisors and has worked 21 years at Raymond James Financial headquarters in St. Petersburg. Being with family is her favorite hobby.
Skip and Eileen often say "it's good to be in Kelly's world." She doesn't hurry (ever), she loves ALL people (except scary clowns), and she notices things that in our hurried life we might miss or take for granted-pretty clouds, a cute baby, or somebody's emerald green hair-yep seen it. Through Buddy Baseball she has built lasting friendships with Coaches, Buddies and Players. That is a priceless gift!
