Dearest Cousins... Willie and Marla, Morris and Pam, Jerry and Shari, your children, their spouses and your grandchildren... It is with a heavy heart that we write this condolence to you. We were deeply saddened to hear of Uncle Sam's passing this morning. Mere words cannot possibly express how broken our hearts are. The wonderful relationship we had with Uncle Sam was unique and extremely close. Uncle Sam had a special way of making everyone he was with feel comfortable and loved. He had a fantastic memory with a love for liturgical music, which was one of his greatest pleasures. We often spoke of my childhood when he and I shared many special times together. May his memory always be for a blessing. We know that G-d and the love from your family and friends will give you strength during this most difficult and sad time. May you find comfort and peace in the many cherished memories you have of Uncle Sam. May you know of no more sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you. HaMakom Yenachem Etchem Betech Shaar Aveilei Zion V'Yerushalayim... Cousins Irving and Hilda.

Jerry and Sherry and the entire family, please accept our deepest condolences on your father Sam’s passing. We enjoyed many interesting conversations with Sam at Langstaff while our mother Sandra (z’l) was there. He was so positive about life, even after all he experienced as a young man during the War. We enjoyed his beautiful singing! We will think of him often.

Mr. Rosencwajg, o"h" applied his super singing talents to really cheer up Jewish Residents at Cheltenham Long-Term Care, North York for well over 12 years, as far as I remember. He was part of a group of volunteers at this nursing home of which I am proud to be part. Our fond memories of Mr. Rosencwajg's sweet voice and chesed live on. We hope the family will come to terms with this most sad loss.

I was deeply saddened to hear about Sams death. We used to talk when I would visit my mom Bina at Langstaff and I learned Sam was also from Łódź as my late father Leo was. He was a sweet man

I recall Sam from decades past. I recall my mother recollected Sam as an acquaintance that enjoyed picnicking at High Pk along with others when I was quite young. May Sam rest in peace.

I didn't know Sam very well. My mother mentioned a long time ago they were familiar via locales in Europe and knew some of the same people. Its good he lived a long life but I never knew he had an extensive family- Must've been a comfort to him. Keep well.
