Augusta Rosen Obituary
Born in Norwich, CT, Augusta moved to Worcester in 1946. She was a retired head secretary, gift shop owner and office worker.
She is survived by her two sons: Jeffrey Rosen of Boxford, MA and Gary Rosen, a former Worcester City councilor and his wife, Maria; and three grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband, Barney Rosen, who died in 1978.
Augusta was a proud and loving mother. A Life Master in the game of Bridge, she also enjoyed writing, reading, painting and travel throughout New England.
She followed and loved politics at all levels. A life-long and loyal Democrat, Augusta looked forward to voting in every election. Her desire to vote, even in ill health, was the subject of a column written by her son last November in Worcester Magazine.
A private funeral service for family and Augusta's friends will be held at 11 AM ON FRIDAY, JULY 15TH in HOLY SOCIETY CEMETERY ON HAVANA RD., LEICESTER.
Please omit flowers. Memorial contributions may be made to: Friends of Worcester's Senior Center, 128 Providence St., Worcester 01604.
Perlman Funeral Home is directing funeral arrangements.
