John Rosen Obituary

John Charles Rosen passed away peacefully on September 3, 2021 at the age of 89. John was a beloved member of the New Orleans and Henleyfield, Mississippi communities, having resided in New Orleans for 65 years before retiring to his home in Mississippi. He is survived by his two children, Anne Lydie Rosen (Jeff Junak) and Robert Loury Rosen (Jennifer) and his four grandchildren, Teller John Junak (Jessica Oreck), Sophie Claire Junak, Matthew Charles Rosen and William Leucht Rosen. John was preceded in death by his parents, Warren Leucht Rosen, M.D. and Erma Stich Rosen, and by Yvette Loury Rosen, his beloved wife of 64 years. John was a graduate of Isidore Newman School and received his Master of Science from Tulane University. He was a pioneer in the field of industrial psychology and founded Social Science Consultants in 1964. He will be remembered as a man of extraordinary character, generous spirit, and a friend to all. He will be deeply missed by his family and his many friends around the globe. A memorial will be held at a later date and interment will be private. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in John's name to the Touro Infirmary Foundation, c/o The Rosen Family Award for Excellence. Established over 30 years ago in memory of Dr. Warren L. Rosen, this annual award recognizes Touro's outstanding healthcare professionals.

Kim worked for John when I was in Dental School. We have good memories of that time. We wish we had known he was still here until 2021, and would have tried to visit him. Such a wonderful man.

John Rosen gave me my first job out of graduate school and taught me a lot. I am most grateful for 50 years of friendship with him and Yvette and the good times and the encouragement given for our own work. We share sadness at his passing with family and many who will miss him much. We are grateful for his spirit, kindness, generosity, humor. We are at a loss with his death but what a life and gift he has been! This legacy still surely moves among all he has touched.
