Mrs. Miriam K. Cohen
June 20, 1929 - May 12, 2022
Miriam Cohen, 92, was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1929, the youngest of three sisters. She graduated high school as a member of Arista, the honor society at that time. She married Robert Cohen in 1948 and raised three sons while also working as a bookkeeper and office manager for a law firm and mortgage company. Miriam volunteered at Hadassah, synagogue sisterhood, and as an election poll worker and was a person committed to serving others even into her 90s. She loved to travel and was an enthusiastic participant in just about anything her grandchildren and great grandchildren asked her to do. She always wanted to learn new things and have new experiences. Miriam was a connector and remained close with friends she made throughout her life. Her magic was that she made each person feel like they were her best friend. Miriam was predeceased by her husband Rob who died in 2005 and is survived by three sons and daughters-in-law, 8 grandchildren, and 11 great grandchildren. Donations in her memory can be made to Hadassah, UJA Federation, or Temple Ner Tamid in Bloomfield, NJ.
