Protector of animals and people, Red Barn and Pet owner Phillip Carter to be remembered at celebration of life June 11.
Longtime owner of Red Barn Feed and Pet and beloved San Fernando Valley businessman Phillip Carter has died at 90. He leaves behind a legacy of love for animals, volunteerism and four decades of passionate leadership at the flourishing animal supply store in Tarzana.
“It was just a fluke that they bought Red Barn,” said Carter’s daughter Cassie on Thursday, May 18. “They saw it was for sale and did this really impulsive thing of buying it. It wasn’t something they really deliberated on, but then he spent 40 years turning it into a place that reflected his values and excitement.”
Running Red Barn was supposed to be a retirement activity after decades of experience as a social worker. But Carter didn’t see that as a reason to rest. Each day—seven days a week—he opened the store, raised the flag atop its pole, spoke to and laughed with customers, stocked shelves, bonded with employees and closed down in the evening.
