My Father, Ade Rosenberg was truly the role model for Fathers. He loved us, he went out of his way to do things to help people. Dad had something good to say about everyone, he made the smallest person feel as big as the most stately person in the crowd. He taught people with his actions and was a true GENTLEMAN in the true sense of the word. I will truly miss you, my Father.
