Carter Lee Underwood

Carter Lee Underwood graced us with his sweet spirit for 18 years, then moved on to a better place on Saturday, March 9, 2024.

With eyes like oceans, Carter had his own ways of making deep connections. He was a good listener and he loved to share jokes.  He was always up for adventures, especially if it involved water.  Some of his best days were swimming with friends and fishing with Mimi and Pa, and riding ocean waves with his dad.

Carter was an accomplished artist and loved sharing beauty with others.  The artistic seed was planted by his Mamaw and watered by his caregivers and family, especially Renae Warner, Benita Jackie, Kenia Loeza, Ruth Ralph, and Ashley Perry. Last year, he presented three public exhibits and now has art on display in 8 states.

More than anything, Carter loved spending time with his family, friends, and special supporters.  Oliva Miller and Conner DeZarn were they best BFFs a boy could have.  Carter was loved by many and shared immense love in return.

Carter was the beloved son of Billy and MaryLee (Perry) Underwood of Lexington.  He was the grandson of Larry and Gail Underwood of Campbellsville; Dr. Larry Perry of Whitley City; and Margaret Lambdin (deceased) of Corbin, Kentucky.  He is survived by great-grandparents Flossie Perry and Dr. H.A. Perry of Whitley City, as well as step-great-grandmother Genell Newton of Campbellsville. He is survived by several aunts and uncles, Stephanie (and Joe) Raines of Corbin; and Melanie (and Mike) Casada of Whitley City.  He was also blessed to know many great-grandparents who preceded him in death: Helen Lambdin, Peggie Price, and Garnet Newton.

Funeral Service: 3:00 P.M., Tuesday, March 12, 2024 at Parrott & Ramsey Funeral Home by Rev. J. Alvin Hardy with burial in Good Hope Baptist Church Cemetery.

Visitation will be 1:00 – 3:00 P.M. Tuesday March 12th.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to Build Inclusions or the Center for Courageous Kids (where Carter enjoyed many adventures).

RV Matthews and Anna Belle Clark Matthews, Tula’s early childhood changed when her father felt the call to the ministry and started his work as a Methodist minister. This journey involved moving around western Kentucky until her beloved father’s death after she graduation from Hiseville High School. Her strong mother then moved the family of nine children to Columbia, KY to be near Lindsey Wilson College to avail her children the opportunity to attend college.

There she watched the development of the new Dallas Cowboys professional football team in 1960, leading to her being a lifelong die-hard Cowboys fan.

After Gene’s death, Tula visited her sisters in Kentucky and reconnected with her high school sweetheart at Hiseville High School, Herbert (Pete) Peterson. They were soon married, and Tula returned to live in Glasgow, Ky until Pete’s death. She then moved to Campbellsville to be closer to family.  After moving here, she also developed a great love of University of Kentucky sports and was a dedicated fan of Wildcat football and basketball.

Tula was involved with the United Methodist Church in Glasgow and enjoyed her time in the church choir and the handbell choir. In Campbellsville, she was a member of the First United Methodist Church. She enjoyed quilting, cross stitch, and counted cross stitch.

She was dedicated to Lindsey Wilson College and donated to the development of the Rev. RV and Anna Belle Matthews Scholarship Fund for ministerial students and funded the Matthews Student Prayer Room for students to have a space on campus for quite time and reflection. She received an Honorary Alumna Award from LWC in 2012.

She is survived by two sisters: Christine Greenman of Muncie, Indiana, and Virginia Ward (Bill) of Madison, Indiana. She is also survived by 13 nieces and nephews. The family would like to show their appreciation to Judy Keltner for her outstanding support as Tula’s companion for 14 years.
