It was a privilege to have known Billy. He was part of a core group of individuals that was there when MET-Rx went from being an average company, to the leading sports nutrition company in the 90's. As director of the clinical sciences department, Billy worked very closely with Dr. Connelly. He was one of the most knowledgeable individuals I have ever known in the field of nutrition science.

Billy and I remained friends after we left MET-Rx. He was a genuinely nice person with a great sense of humor. We often talked about our hopes that Dr. Connelly would again bring a product to the market, so that we could work together once more. Ironically, that opportunity was becoming a reality before his life was cut short.

Billy, you will be missed...

That is terrible news. I am so sorry to hear that. He was a great person, and often emailed me in regards to diet and supps...

I am at a loss for words.

Billy was a great guy and helped me when I had a lot of personal stuff going on. He was one of the most intelligent people I've ever had a chance to discuss sport's nutrition with, and had the best stories re: late 90's BB scene. I am still shocked and wish his family and GF my sincere prayers...

good call. I also remember reading about MassWithClass' battle with organ failure. He was 37 also.

Very sad to hear of Billy's passing. He and I talked in depth about the Karate Kid movies and their profound impact on our lives. We both remembered to never get "squish just like grape" and to always drive a car when escaping from the Kobra Kai dojo. Billy will be missed.

Always look eye.....RIP

Dr. Scott Connelly has reported that Billy Carpenter, aka Billy Carp here on Getbig.com, has passed away. I verified it today with Mindspin, who has worked with Billy a number of years while at Met-Rx, as well as Scott Connelly. Unfortunately, what we have heard is true...
From Scott Connelly
It is with great torment that I report the death of Billy Carpenter on 29 Jan 2006. Cause of death is unknown. Billy was my colleague, my workout partner, and above all my best friend. His passing has left me temporarily incapacitated. I will announce updates on memorials etc. as I regain my composure and am properly informed. Billy enjoyed being part of your community and will be dearly missed by many.

That sucks. Dude always liked me.
