| 2345 | Roy Rosenberg Obituary It is with heartfelt sadness that we announce the passing of Roy E. Rosenberg, fondly known as “Akron’s Willie Nelson” on June 15, 2024. Born on January 30, 1938, in Clarence, NY to the late Martin and Margaret (Reigle) Rosenberg-Cummings. Roy was a unique, passionate and steadfast man who cherished his family and friends. His love for nature was evident in his hobbies and interests - an avid hunter and fisherman, Roy once proudly landed a black bear in Maine. His love for the outdoors extended beyond the thrill of the hunt. He was a keen observer of birds and a lover of flowers, capturing the beauty of the world around him through his passion for photography. Roy served proudly in the United States Army for close to 3 years. He then spent his professional life as a machine operator at Strippit Houdaille bringing the same dedication to his work as he did to his hobbies. He was a member of the NRA, the World Wildlife Fund, and The National Audubon Society, organizations that reflected his deep respect for nature and the rights of individuals. His love for Jazz and Blues music was infectious, and he was known to light up any gathering with his eclectic taste and knowledge of the genres. His love for baseball, NASCAR and fireworks added a dash of thrill and excitement to his otherwise tranquil demeanor. Loving friend to Janice Rosenberg; beloved father of Rebecca (Donald) Smith, and Kelly (Marc) Schnirel; cherished grandfather of Kelsey and Jacob Smith; dear brother of the late Beatrice (late Ray) Gill, late Gordon Rosenberg, Leslie (Marsha) Cummings, Larry (Diane) Cummings, late Leon (Carol) Cummings, Janice (Lester) Cummings, late Milton Cummings, Susan (late Mike) Ribbeck, Beverly (Tom) Berndt; fond uncle of many nieces and nephews.

| 2349 | Sandra Armitage Obituary Armitage, Sandra L. (nee Treichler) February 15, 1940 - April 16, 2024 age 84, of Buffalo, formerly of Sanborn, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, April 16 after a long illness. She spent much of her final days with her loving children. She is remembered for her sharp mind and sharper sense of humor, which endeared her to all. Sandy was born in Silver Creek, NY on February 15, 1940. She grew up in Sanborn and graduated from Wilson High School in 1958. She raised her children in Lewiston, balancing homemaking with an interest in photography (which led to her frequently commandeering the bathroom for use as her darkroom) and schlepping her kids to various music concerts and athletic competitions. She also worked as a bookkeeper for various Western NY accounting firms and small businesses. A lifelong animal lover, Sandy volunteered at the SPCA in retirement, spending much of her time with cats who were up for adoption. This naturally led Sandy to adopt some of those cats, who became her constant companions. She also loved to stay in touch with, and visit, her nieces, nephews and cousins, many of whom were thoughtful enough to move to beautiful places (Hawaii, California, Virginia). Sandy is survived by her children, Deborah Maloney Hicks of Getzville, NY and Bruce of Pittsburgh, PA, her granddaughter Lara Maloney of Woodland Park, CO, her brother Wilbur (Bill) Treichler of Wheatfield and her beloved cats, Jack and Lily. She was preceded in death by her parents, Wilbur and Helen Treichler of Sanborn, her sister Marilyn Truesdell of Buffalo and her grandson Christopher Maloney of Lockport and Conway, SC. No Visitation. A celebration of Sandy's life will be scheduled for later this year. In lieu of flowers, donations in Sandy's memory may be made to the Chris Maloney Legacy Foundation (www.chrismaloneylegacyfoundation.org).
