Mr. Eddie Earl Carroll passed from this earthly world on December 10, 2022, at the age of 81. He was born in Lewis County on July 10, 1941, to the late John and Marie Wade Carroll. Along with his parents he was preceded in death by his brothers Samuel and Billy Wade Carroll.

On July 2, 1962, he married his one and only true soul mate Mrs. Betty Parrish. Throughout their 60 years together they loved and raised 4 boys and have added many daughters and grandchildren to their family. Both he and Betty were members of Little Swan Church of Christ. He spent his life working as a truck driver and logger and recently drove a truck for C&C logging.

During his free time, he was one that wanted to be outside when possible and could often be found spending time with his family at the river. Many memories to help cherish him were made at the river lot. When they weren’t at the river he would sit and watch the latest drag racing event or work on a new carpentry piece.
