Stanley F. Rosen

Albany   - Stanley Frederick Rosen passed away in the early hours of Sunday August 27th, 2023, at the age of 80 after a years long battle with heart disease.

Born May 16, 1943 in the Flatbush neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY, Stan was the oldest of five children.  Stan attended public school in Brooklyn as well as Hebrew school at a local synagogue where he would become a Bar Mitzvah.  

As a young adult, Stan would find work at the original Nathan’s Hot Dogs in Coney Island on his way to becoming a union electrician which would become his life’s profession.  That profession would lead him to Albany, NY, where he would find Darlene, his bride of nearly 40 years.  

Together, Stan and Darlene discovered world travel and developed a love for sailing.  They traveled to different countries and continents enjoying adventures that included Israel, Thailand and Hawaii.  In retirement, Stan captained his sailboat with Darlene, traveling up and down the east coast, making annual crossings to the Bahamas and back.  They would settle in Florida where they have enjoyed living in the city of Punta Gorda since the early 2010s.

With Stan passing, he takes with him his unique way of thinking, his unteachable methods of problem-solving and indescribable sense of humor.

Stan is survived by his wife Darlene, son Robert (Debra), daughters Andrea Anger(Howard) and Kristina Solloway (Steven) and five grandsons, Lucas Rosen, Caleb and Levi Anger and Ian and Zachary Solloway.  Stan is also survived by his siblings and their spouses Arthur and Sandi Rosen, Eddie and Sharon Rosen, Eileen and Gary Blum, Debbie and Alvin Sall and his many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews along with many, many additional family members and countless friends.
