Martha Carol Eichelberger, 69, of Decatur, GA passed away unexpectedly on Monday, April 15th, in her home in Decatur, GA. She was born in Chattanooga, TN, to parents Edward Eichelberger and Martha Douthitt Eichelberger.

Martha was a graduate of University of Tennessee Memphis and studied laboratory science and medical technology.

Carol was a humble, faithful follower of Jesus Christ. She was known for her intellect, dry sense of humor, soulful singing voice, and her love of dogs. She passionately supported the Northlake church of Christ, among other organizations.

She is survived by her sister Anne Eichelberger Page of Decatur, GA and her brother Edward Eichelberger (Mary) of Boerne, Texas and her nephew and four nieces, Andrew (Jinnie) Page of Atlanta, GA; Hannah Page of Decatur, GA, Katie (Lane) Mandel of Dallas, TX, Julie (Preston) Woolfolk of San Antonio, TX, Hillary Eichelberger (Raghav Gandotra) of Palo Alto, CA..

The family especially appreciates the support and kindness of her small group friends at Northlake Church and the staff at Regency House in Decatur.

She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. A private memorial service will be held in Decatur, GA with her family.

In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in her memory to Northlake church of Christ's Refugee Work, NETWorks Cooperative Ministry, or the Atlanta Humane Society.
