NEC/TCC Chair Jim Carpenter News

For your information:

IAEI, Southern Section Members:


As most of you realize, Jim Carpenter retired from the CEO/Executive Director position at IAEI at the end of 2009. He has moved back to North Carolina, building a pool and enjoying the opportunity to be close to his family.

This past weekend Jim had a heart attack and coronary bypass surgery today. He is expecting a three-month rehab period. I spoke with Mary Anne on Tuesday from the Alabama Chapter Meeting. Jim was looking forward to getting past the surgery and rehab and then being able to enjoy the pool.

I just heard from Mark Earley. Jim did well in surgery and is now in intensive care.

I will provide updates as more information is available.

Please remember Jim and Mary Anne in your prayers as they endure this difficult day and the rehabilitation period.

I just saw Jim at the NC electrical institutes annual meeting in Raleigh last week. He looked pretty good. A heart attack can change things quickly. I, of course, wish Jim the best of luck.

Floating and exercising in a pool is the one of the best things for a human body, I wish him well.

I like Jim, I sat and talked with him at one of our section meetings.

Speedy recovery Jim.
