Louis Rosenberg

Louis Henry Rosenberg passed away on May 2, 2025 at the age of 86. He was predeceased by his parents, Fritz and Germaine Rosenberg, and is survived by his wife, Maxine Rosenberg, son and daughter-in-law, Eric and Barrie Rosenberg, daughters, Leslie and Stacey Rosenberg, grandsons, Oscar and Freddie Rosenberg, brothers, Rolph, George, and Ben Rosenberg, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Louis was born in Langenthal, Switzerland and moved to this country when he was nine months old. He grew up on his family's dairy farm on Pierce Creek Road in Conklin, NY, where his parents ran a summer camp for 24 years. He majored in animal husbandry at Delhi Tech, and though his family sold the farm in the late 60s, spent his entire career working with farms throughout the Southern Tier, first as a milk inspector with Dairylea and then as a feed salesman with Pennfield. In his spare time, he ran an excavating business, building foundations, hauling topsoil, and installing a large portion of the septic systems in the Town of Conklin. He met his wife Maxine at a singles event at the Jewish Community Center and married her in 1973. They raised a family of three children they were extremely proud of. He was a lifelong resident of Conklin, a lifelong member of Temple Israel, and a proud piece of the Jewish farming community that prospered in upstate New York during the mid-20th century. He knew everyone in town and was loved by all. He was a hard worker, tough as nails, and treated everyone with humility and respect.
