Eva A. (Clark) Morin

Eva Morin

Eva A Morin, the widow of the Reverend Roland E Morin, died 3 December 2020 at her home in Keene, New Hampshire. Eva was born in Carlisle, Massachusetts, on May 19, 1914, to Romey and Rose (Fadden) Clark. She married Roland E Morin in 1936 and moved to Hudson MA where they raised their two children, Paul E Morin and Suzanne I Morin. 

In 1959 Eva and Roland moved to Laconia NH, where Roland was ordained and installed as the minister of the First Unitarian Society. In 1963 they moved to Chelmsford MA where Roland served as the minister of the UU church. Eva was involved in church and community affairs, acting in a local production of “The Pirates of Penzance.” They lived in Chelmsford until their retirement in 1979. In retirement they moved to Campton NH, where they enjoyed the beauty of the White Mountains. 

Upon her husband’s death in 1984, Eva moved to be closer to family. She lived Nashua NH, Maynard MA, Stow MA and finally Keene NH. She enjoyed reading, painting with watercolors, gardening, her family, and friends of all ages. 

She is survived by her son Paul Morin and his wife Margaret of Tinmouth VT and her daughter Suzanne Morin and her husband Joseph Staples of Keene NH, six grandchildren, eight great grandchildren and seven great great grandchildren. Due to the pandemic there will be a memorial service later in 2021. 

The family asks that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made in Eva’s memory to the Monadnock Humane Society, 101 West Swanzey Road, Swanzey NH 03446 or to Keene Community Kitchen, 37 Mechanic St, Keene NH 03431. 

Condolences may be sent to Suzanne Morin, 60 Skyline Drive, Keene, NH 03431 and/or Paul Morin 493 East Road, Tinmouth, VT 05773.
