Posted: Yesterday at 12:54 pm Subject: Carpenters "Official Website" / Becky Boxberger; Reply with quote
Just a little note to Carpenters fans...
As of (2) weeks ago, Becky Boxberger no longer works for Carpenters, as she has decided to relocate to Northern California.
She was extremely instrumental in linking fans to Richard, and was solely responsible for developing the concept of "Fans Ask", as well as the "official website" in and of itself. Due to this fact, it is uncertain as to whether or not Richard will continue to maintain the site or not. He hadn't made that decision as of a week and a half ago.

Thanks WJ7, you beat me to the punch. Our own "neverbeenalone", Chris May, who is a dear friend of Becky's, and a moderator at A&M Corner wrote to tell me that Becky was moving to Northern CA, and would be leaving her Personal Assistant position with Richard Carpenter. At this time, you're absolutely right in that it is not known whether or not Rich will rehire a personal assistant who will continue to take care of the website, and whether or not the website will continue to remain viable. Becky was a significant link to us for questions, as many of us had developed a great relationship with her, and she would often ask Richard immediately about our questions, knowing we wanted to post something here. I will miss her a lot. She is a very sweet person. Thanks for the info, WJ7, and to you, Chris. Tim

This is sad news indeed. I hope Richard still has interest in the web site and what it stands for...a viable link to his many fans. We can only hope he will get some one in to fill Becky's shoes. : (
Does this alter our birthday card plans for Richard??

Hope Richard Keeps the site alive and gets someone to run it (I know Becky is irreplaceable)
