CARL STRAUSS Obituary

STRAUSS--Dr. Carl. We will miss our amazing polymath- a brilliant and compassionate family physician for over 50 years. Loving husband to Shirley Strauss for 67 years and devoted father to Dr. Elton Strauss (Karen) and Bonnie Carroll (Kevin); adored grandfather to Eric (Bridget), Elisa (Marc), Melanie (Peter) and the late K.J. Great-grandfather to Sophie, Margot, Ryan and Gavin. In 1993, Dr. Carl, who delivered generations of Brooklyn babies, was voted "Man of the Year" in Bensonhurst. He will be missed enormously by so many for whom he was man of the year, every year. Carl, along with his wife Shirley, was a staunch supporter of the East Midwood Jewish Center. The family would appreciate contributions be sent there or Temple Beth EI, Manhattan Beach or Turning Point, Patterson, NJ. Services Sunday 12 Noon at Sherman's Flatbush Memorial Chapel, 1283 Coney Island Ave., Brooklyn. www.shermanschapel.com
