William George Kohl, 93, passed away May 1, 2021, in Mesa, AZ.

William was born on June 9, 1927, in Youngstown, OH to Andrew and Mary 
(Hromyak) Kohl. He was an Army Veteran in World War II, stationed in 
the Phillipines. He retired from the United States Postal Service 
where he was first employed as a mechanic, and then moved into the 
position of a letter carrier, retiring in the late 1970s. He was also 
a member of the American Legion since 1960.

Mr. Kohl was an avid golfer, full of life, and always telling jokes. 
One of his favorites was telling people that when he played golf, he 
always took two pair of pants in case he got "a hole in one!"

William is survived by his two sons, David William Kohl (Vanessa), and 
Donald George Kohl, both of Mesa, AZ; four grandchildren: Sean Kohl of 
Sierra Vista, Aaron Kohl, Geoffrey Kohl, and Faith Kohl, of Atlanta, 
GA; and two great grandchildren: Gage Kohl of Atlanta, GA, and 
Sterling Kohl of Cambridgeshire, England. He was preceded in death by 
his parents, and five brothers: John, Edward, Mike, Andrew, and Steve 
Kohl; and five sisters: Katie, Helen, Martha, Mary, and Eleanor.
