Antonella Carpenter

Antonella Carpenter
Born August 29, 1944, in Padova, Italy, to her parents Aldo and
Maria Aprile.

Antonella was raised in Milan, Italy, where she graduated from
high school and attended the University of Milan. She then came
to the USA after marrying her first husband, James H. Berry, in
Vietnam in June 1968, while he was assigned there by the US Army.
Their daughter, Wendy, was born a year later.

Antonella became a US citizen a few years after that. She attended
Cameron University in Lawton, Oklahoma in 1976-77, and received her
Bachelor of Science in Physics in 1977, shortly after divorcing her
husband. She received her Masters of Science in Solid State Physics at
Oklahoma State University in Stillwater in 1980.

Antonella was an electronic engineer for mainly government contractors
during the Reagan Administration, and later created a patented laser
and started her own company (with her second husband) in the pursuit of
treating cancer. Finding herself at the forefront of controversy, she hosted
a weekly podcast which ran for six years chronicling this controversy.
Her hobbies included cooking, sewing, reading, tv and movies, and she
loved celebrating all holidays.

Antonella is survived by her daughter, Wendy Donna Simmons and
son in law Randy Simmons, her three grandchildren: Sabrina Simmons,
Nina Ferguson, and Nolan Ferguson; brother Adriano Aprile, and
nephews Eros and Aramis Aprile.

A memorial service will be held on May 8th at 12:00 pm, at Be-Mar Chapel in Bixby, OK.

Arrangements are entrusted to Schaudt Glenpool Funeral Service & Cremation Care Centers.
