Robert Maurice Rosenfeld

Robert Maurice Rosenfeld, 98, passed away on October 8, 2026. Born on January 10, 1928, in New York, NY, he was the son of Benjamin and Sarah Rosenfeld. He made his home in West Orange, New Jersey for more than 60 years, building a life defined by steadfast devotion to family, quiet strength, and enduring purpose.

He proudly served as a veteran of the US Navy and remained a long-time member of the Jewish War Veterans, reflecting a deep and lasting respect for service and community. He earned his Bachelor of Arts from Baruch College in New York and brought that same discipline and reliability to his professional life. Robert worked as a controller at Barton Press, where he was valued for his careful judgment and steady leadership, retiring in his late 70s.

Robert was the beloved husband of Eileen Walley. They were together for 19 years and were just shy of celebrating their 9th wedding anniversary. He was previously the loving husband of the late Dolores. He was the devoted father of Susan (Paul) and Linda (Marc), and step father to Budd. He was a cherished grandfather to Keith, MJ, Jeffrey, and Jason.

An animal lover at heart, Robert’s kindness was evident in the care he showed to the creatures around him. He also carried remarkable energy and determination into his later years, remaining an avid racketball and paddleball player well into his 90s—an enduring testament to his vitality and resolve.

A Cryptside Service will be held at Cedar Park and Beth El Cemeteries, 735 Forest Ave, Paramus, NJ 07652, on October 12, 2026, at 12:30 pm.
