CAROLE FRIEDMAN Obituary

FRIEDMAN--Carole. Carole Hirsch Friedman passed away on Tuesday, January 26th, sixteen days after her beloved husband Mickey. Carole and Mickey had a wonderful love affair for over 60 years. An amazing athlete, an incredible cook, and an artist of real talent, Carole was a woman of humor and genuine wisdom. She loved Mickey, her children, her grandchildren, and great-grandchildren without limit. Carole's heroes were her mother and father, Myrtle and Henry Hirsch. She lived her life emulating her parents' profound and constant concern for our community and all those within our community. Mickey and Carole led fantastic and active lives filled with travel, golf, tennis, and sailing. Carole was a devoted philanthropist, and for over six decades was committed to UJA-Federation of New York, The Fifth Avenue Synagogue, Schneider Children's Hospital, and many other organizations. She was a daughter, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother of remarkable stature. We will miss you every day for the rest of our lives. Love Jonny, Debbie, Lisa, and the entire Friedman and Cooper family. In lieu of flowers, we ask that contributions be made to UJA-Federation of New York for the Carole & Mickey Friedman PACT program at

I am just so sad (and shocked) to read this news about Carole's passing. And just 16 days after her beloved Mickey's passing. What a truly dynamic, awesome and amazing duo they were. Beautiful on the inside and out. Carole was gracious, loving, giving, interesting, interested, loyal and caring. Her devotion to her family, friends, her Judaism and the many causes she felt passionately about were inspiring. She was a great lady who I deeply admired. My parents (Chickie and Bill) adored both Mickey and Carole. As did my Dad's partner Ruth (after he was a widower). I will miss Carole and send heartfelt condolences from all of us to her family. She leaves behind a powerful legacy. May her memory be for a blessing for all.
