Eustace Gregory Carter

Eustace, also known as Nick and Frank attended Buxton Catholic School in Guyana, South America. More fondly know as Uncle Frank, Eustace worked at Barima Woodworking as a furniture maker and later taught his craft at the New Opportunity Center (formerly Underneeming Boys School) from 1956 to 1969. He immigrated to the United States of America in 1969 and took up residence in Brooklyn, New York. For the next two years Nick attended Manhattan Technical Institute where he received a diploma in Architectural Drafting in 1971. During his formative working years in New York Eustace taught Architectural Drawing for a period of time and later owned his own business “Woodwork Elite” in Brooklyn, New York. Subsequently, Eustace retired to Lehigh Acres, Florida in 1994. Retiring was more a dream than reality because Frank worked the next five years at Raymond Remodeling where he received an award for dedicated service to the company. On the social seen for several years, Nick was the president of the Caribbean American Social Club of Lehigh Acres.

Uncle Frank loved and served God in various capacities. Most recently he attended St. Anselm Episcopal Church, Lehigh Acres, Florida, and worshiped the Lord by serving in various ministries including the music ministry. At other times Eustace served as a Jr Wardon, Sr Wardon, was involved in general maintenance and took great pride in beautifying and modernizing the local sanctuary.

During his time with us Nick traveled to Europe, the Caribbean, Bahamas and through out the United States.
