Carol Ann Eubank
March 26, 1939 — February 13, 2021
Carol Ann Eubank, age 81 of Coventry Township passed away on Saturday, February 13, 2021 at her home, with her family by her side. She was born in Akron on March 26, 1939, the daughter of the late John Tosill and Helen (Hank) {Dubovec} Meier.
In addition to her parents, Carol was preceded in death by her brother John Tosill.
Left to cherish Carol's memory are her children, Michele (Bob) Ellis and Jim Eubank; granddaughter Cortney Ellis; step-sister Carole Meier.
Carol retired from the Akron Beacon Journal in 2001, where she worked in the marketing and research departments. Her community involvement and event planning background led to her final career, working with Hower House, Akron Women's City Club, and others too numerous to mention.
Carol was a member of the Portage Lakes Historical Society, acting as its President since 2012. The Society purchased a scanner for Summit County Public Library, to aid in the preservation of vintage historical photos of the area. These photos were later used in the annual Historical Society Open House, which Carol organized. She also co-chaired the Portage Lakes Boat Parade and Luminary Project, creating a 16-page insert on the event for the newspaper. Through the efforts of Carol and the Portage Lakes Historical Society, the map of Portage Lakes was placed in the terazzo floor at the new Coventry High School.
Carol also served as President of the Akron Summit Council on Tourism, and received the Innovation Woman of the Year award in 2018 from the Summit County Historical Society.
Carol produced a post card book called "Greeting from Portage Lakes." Her final project was creating a historical marker for the East Reservoir Dam Project, which was completed earlier this year.
Per Carol's wishes, cremation has taken place, and a celebration of her life will be scheduled for a later date. Please check back for details. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Carol's name to The American Cancer Society. To leave a message for Carol's family, please scroll below.
