Biography

He carried the islands' voice to far-reaching capitals, negotiating treaties, nurturing trade, and advocating for the dignity of his homeland in the company of foreign ministers.
He also brought a thoughtful stewardship to Honolulu, supporting commercial growth and encouraging the personal ties that kept the kingdom steady through ebbs and flows. Carter's presence in O'ahu Cemetery remains a quiet testament to a life spent in faithful service to the islands.
