Phyllis Dold, age 86, passed away on November 14, 2025. She was born on March 3, 1939, the daughter of Alice and George Hahn, in Minersville, Pennsylvania.
She went to Millersville State College to pursue her passion of a love of books. She received an MS in Library Service from Rutgers University, followed by various librarian jobs, including Children's Hospital in Philadelphia, The Free Library of Philadelphia, Lenape High School, and Washington Township School District. She especially loved children's literature, and enjoyed making the school library a place where books told a story in a way that technology could never replace.
She is survived by her two sons Frederick and Andrew, daughter in laws Nora and Sylvia and 3 grandchildren Aidan, Madeline, and Nicholas.
She will be missed and remembered. At the family's request there will be no service at this time.
In lieu of Flowers, please make donations to the Free Library of Philadelphia Foundation

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life´s routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of God, family and friends. Please find comfort in the words found at Isaiah 61: 1,2.

We mourn our loss but will have fond memories and fun stories that will carry on. I will always be grateful for the special bond Nicholas and Phyllis shared. He already misses Nana so much.
