Not sure what to say?

I just want to add a nice memory. Jennifer and Adam flew into Israel back in 1999 and I flew in from Moscow. We had a great visit with relatives and friends during that tour in Israel and we even crossed the border into Jordan and saw the famous Petra. I also want to add that in 2012 was the first time I took my wife , Talya, and son, Yosef, to visit the USA. We enjoyed visiting both Manhattan as well as the Berkshires. Jennifer, I will always remember you.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Jen's passing. During my time as an international undergrad student from Tanzania in NYC, I was fortunate to be welcomed into Jen's home as a babysitter for Rebecca and Russell. Those cherished weekends in the Berkshires and the kindness, understanding, and generosity she showed me will forever be etched in my heart. Jen had a beautiful heart and was someone you just don't forget about. Our bond transcended borders, and we remained in touch even after I left...

One special memory was when Jennifer , Adam, Russell and Rebecca met up with Granny and Grandpa and myself in San DIego for a great family get together. I was living in Japan at the time. It was just terrific!! We went to the San Diego Zoo as well as the Lego World among other tourist attractions in that area. Cousin Matt, Aunt Louise and Uncle Mike - The Wigdols etc.. also joined in on this great family get together. It was actually Jennifer's idea for all of us to get together in San...

It truly has been very difficult this year without Jennifer. As a kid growing up, she always gave me advice when I needed it. I still remember how she walked with her pet dog and my son, Yosef, when he was just four years old. Andrew Rolnick Brother

I had the privilege of being coached by Jennifer during my time at CBS from 2013-2015. She was one of the kindest and most helpful people I have known, and was always there with a smile, ready to support the many students who depended on her. The skills she taught have continued to help me in my career. I live in Europe now and just saw this; I am absolutely devastated. May her soul rest in peace; my heartfelt condolences to the family.

I met Jennifer and Adam when we joined the Rodeph Sholom School community and though our kids were not the same age Jennifer was one of the first parents to welcome me and make me feel a part of the special community we had joined. Jennifer was a source of joy and an inspiration to all who were privileged to know her. Her warm smile and her love of life were contagious and she was loved by everyone who knew her. Though we did not see each other often, time spent with her was always always...

Our apologies for the delay in posting our condolences. My husband and I (who also happened to have attended University of Michigan) did not know Jennifer but our daughter Sammy and Jennifer's son Russell are classmates. Jennifer sounded like an exceptional person. It would have been lovely to have known her. We are sending our thoughts to the entire Rosenthal family.

I am sorry to read Jennifer’s obituary. I did not know her but she sounded like an amazing person. My sister passed away last October at the same age from this awful disease.

Jennifer was one of the most positive, delightful people I have ever known. I met her through our girls' friendship over ten years ago. We had many wonderful times together: on the sidelines at child sporting events, at milestone celebrations, in Florida visiting grandparents and even during trips to doctors where she remained impressively positive. I was fortunate enough, along with our friend Abbe, to have had a front row seat to the outpouring of love from over a hundred of her friends and...
