OBITUARY

Rosalind Madeson Aussenberg April 18, 1929 - February 21, 2025

Roz Aussenberg was born in The Bronx, New York, to Matilda and Edward Madeson. She learned independence and resilience at a very young age, being the oldest of three children and born during the Great Depression.

Roz met her husband, Lou, at a dude ranch. He was riding atop a large horse, and it was love at first sight! They enjoyed a wonderful marriage, welcoming their daughter Elyse and son Neil into the fold. Lou's work brought them from New York to Atlanta, Georgia, in 1952. Roz never lost her thick New York accent! Lou spent much time working on the road while Roz raised their children and ran the household.

Roz loved bowling, was a bookkeeper extraordinaire, mandel brot queen, mah-jongg ace, stock market researcher, and avid reader. She cherished her many friends and adored spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Roz was predeceased by her husband Lou, daughter Elyse Aussenberg Denys, and brother-in-law Jerry Schlesinger. She is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Neil and Liz Aussenberg; her grandchildren, David and Dana Aussenberg, Ben and Hillary Aussenberg, Laura and Adam Cohen, and Brent Denys and fiancé Olivia Whitehead; her great-grandchildren, Jake and Josh Aussenberg and Charlie and Casey Cohen; her son-in-law, John Denys; her sister, Arlene Schlesinger, and her children, Sue Ann Schlesinger, Kathy and Jim Bowhall, and Michael Schlesinger; and her brother, Jules Madeson.
