Eduardo knew Jimmy Carpenter 



https://www.njherald.com/Obituaries




Jimmy Carpenter lived just up the dirt road from my aunt and uncle's and cousins farm in New Jersey. We used to look around in his antique store. I once saw a Tarzan hardcover book in there...but I was just a kid and didn't have ONE DOLLAR for the book. 

Everybody knew Jimmy Carpenter...he was one of the Founding Members of the Montague Volunteer Fire Dept created in 1949.

....Long ago....

Jimmy Carpenter had a big scar on his face (I don't know how it happened) and he talked with kind-of a stutter....anyway everybody in that part of the state (just across the Delaware River from PA) knew him...
