He was born June 29, 1912, in the town of Unadilla, the son of the late Lester and Clara (Ackley) Carvin.
Eena was a lifelong resident of Unadilla, and owned and operated a dairy farm on Idumea Road, in the town of Unadilla, and later retired as a self-employed carpenter.
He was a member of the Unadilla Friends Church, Unadilla Grange, Pomona Grange, New York State Grange and past Deputy, National Grange, past board member of the Otsego County Fair Association, 4-H Leader, former chairman of the GLF, member of A.S.C.S., former member of Eastern Milk Producers, and the Wells Bridge and Unadilla Senior Citizens.
Eena is survived by three stepsons, Richard Griswold, Robert Griswold and Russell Griswold; also several nieces and nephews.
He was predeceased by his wives, Alta Palmer and Lucy Griswold; his sister, Eunice Robinson, Della Alger and Beula Prindle.
In keeping with his wishes, there will be no calling hours, and a graveside service will be announced later in the spring, in Sand Hill Cemetery in Unadilla.

Uncle Eena was given 96 years well-spent in unselfish service to others and his community. He had an unsatiable love of joyous living, travel adventures and the sharing of his talents and labors with all he come in contact. The rennovations at the Community House, Friends Church outbuildings in Unadilla and the new structures at the Fair Grounds in Morris stand as testaments to his dedication to community service. Along with his two dear wives, first Aunt Alta and then Aunt Lucy the needy were fed, the newcomers welcomed and the gift of loving friendship extended. They all now share the joy of Heaven and we are sure they each were greeted with the words "well-done" upon their arrival. Even though we dearly miss them we also give thanks for their lives.
Pat, Barry and Michael Eena Ayers
