Obituary: Carol Doris Kohn, 96

Carol Doris Kohn, 96, of Atlanta, passed away peacefully Thursday, October 13, 2016.

She was born March 27, 1920 in New York City to Pearl and David Sulzer, both of blessed memory. Growing up in NY, she and her husband also lived in New Hampshire before they moved to Georgia eight years ago to be closer to their family.

An avid reader and wonderful cook, she enjoyed quilting and knitting, and mastered playing golf with a single club. Carol was very active in her synagogue sisterhood in Long Island and NH, and volunteered for both a middle school and library in NH. She had great passion for her family and will be remembered for the tremendous comforting atmosphere felt by all who entered her homestead.
