ROSEN Jay L. Rosen, of Audubon, PA left this leg of
his journey on August 5, 2021. He was the
son of Henry and Edith (Susskind) Rosen. He
was predeceased by his beloved wife of 57
years, Pearl (Pood) Rosen. He leaves behind
to celebrate his large life: his daughter,
Susan, and son Daniel; his grandchildren
Gwen, Joshua (Maegan), and Zachary (Amy);
his sisters Carol Ostrow and Janet Chertkoff;
many nieces and nephews; and a wonderful
network of friends. "Jimmy" was a devoted
family man and a huge lover of life. As an
Eagle Scout he developed a respect for being
outdoors which he passed onto his family
during many camping trips to national parks
throughout the country. He enlisted in the
United States Navy, proudly served on the
U.S.S. Intrepid, and frequently regaled his
family and friends with stories of his time in
the military. He was an avid reader and was
always enjoying several books at a time. Dad
started a poetry club at his retirement com-
munity (Shannondell), and its members
thrilled him as much as the poetry. Dad was a
big part of the Shannondell Readers Theatre
and he was always a great performer – on
stage and off! He was an active member of
Keneseth Israel and relished learning Torah
which prompted him to write a weekly D'Var
for his fellow congregants and the many fol-
lowers he gathered over the years. Dad took
tremendous pride in this endeavor. Dad
hopelessly cheered on the Phillies. He also
loved the game of golf and continued golfing
for as long as he was able. Dad was a very
proud graduate of Central High School and
Temple University, and he remained active in
both schools throughout his life. For many
years he met monthly with his Central bud-
dies for lunch and laughter. Dad was the co-
founder of Technical Advisory Service for At-
torneys (TASA) and steered the company for
over 65 years. He was extremely hard-work-
ing, very loyal, and ever-present to his busi-
ness. In their retirement, our parents en-
joyed wintering in Jekyll Island, GA and they
had many happy times together. After Mom
passed away, Dad became more involved in
Temple Beth Tefilah Synagogue in Brunswick,
GA and again he developed many new friend-
ships. Dad was a huge lover of life, always
learning and always teaching. We have all
been privileged to learn from him and to ex-
perience so many lessons and opportunities
because of him. A huge piece of us is gone.
And we will continue to honor him and make
him proud by living and loving well. He con-
stantly taught us to treasure life and hold
close the ones you love. If you are so moved,
take pause and raise a glass of fine scotch, a
yummy milkshake, a delicious root beer float,
or suck with glee on a Werther’s hard candy!
The burial will be private, and we will further
celebrate his legacy at a later date. Contribu-
tions in his memory may be made to a char-
ity that speaks to your heart. So be it.

Mark will be deeply missed by his family. He
