Obituary: Janine Storch

Janine Storch passed away peacefully on Sunday, June 15, 2025. She was born April 2, 1929, in Paris, France, to Pauline and Meyer Tchoudnovsky. She was pre-deceased by her parents and her sisters, Berthe, Fanie and Simone. Survivors include her daughter, Dominique Levin (Rael), grandson, Micah Levin (Beth), granddaughter, Chantal Spector (Mike), and great-grandchildren, Jacob and Hailey Levin and Charlotte and Jonathan Spector.

Having survived World War II in a small village outside of Paris, she moved to New York where she met her husband, Jack Storch. She worked as a fashion buyer for a large department store while in New York but moved to Atlanta a few years later and together with her husband built a successful renovation business and their real estate investment company. She handled all bookkeeping and secretarial duties for over 45 years.

She was an incredible cook and balebusta. It was not uncommon to have over 40 people at her table for the Jewish holidays. A woman of strength and strong will, she will be remembered by friends and family as generous to a fault. A lifetime member of Hadassah and philanthropist to many Jewish causes, she will be missed.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to Congregation B’nai Torah, JNF, Hadassah, and Hemshech.
