She described life with so many siblings this way: “I had a lot of bosses!” Her oldest brother was twenty-five when Rosalind was born.
Rosalind, who preferred to be called “Roz,” studied early childhood education at the Illman School, which was associated with the University of Pennsylvania. She taught kindergarten for fifteen years, and was involved in the development of the national Head Start Program.
Roz married Dr. Louis Greenwald, a dentist, and they had two children, Marjorie and Michael. Roz had three grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
Roz lived in Florida for thirty-seven years, until she passed away peacefully in Fort Lauderdale on May 12, 2014. For over twenty-five years, Roz taught knitting and crocheting as a volunteer at the Douglas Gardens Home and Hospital for the Aged in Miami. Throughout her life, Roz traveled extensively. She went around the world a couple of times, landing on every continent except Antarctica.
Roz possessed a love for music and art, and was an avid reader. She played Scrabble, trivia games, bridge, and gin rummy, and, by her own admission, was an excellent swimmer. Roz’s chronological age did not match her youthful appearance and zest for life!ver menos
