Roslyn (Roz) Weber Halpern, 82, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, passed away peacefully on July 7th, 2025, at Elizabeth Residence Bayside.

Born on October 8th, 1942, she was raised in Philadelphia, PA and graduated Temple University with a degree in education. After graduation, she was married to Rabbi Larry J. Halpern, with whom she was to have two children, Susan and Ari. They moved to Orlando, Florida in 1970 where Roz was an active member of the community starting the JCC’s summer camp program, serving as chair of the Jewish Federation of Greater Orlando fundraising drive, hosting countless committee meetings and guest speakers at her home, leading a Brownie Troop, and teaching in the Orange County School System. She was active in NOW, the NCJW, and the Sisterhood of Congregation of Liberal Judaism. She was a firm believer in actively working for the causes in which she believed. She later worked for Beth Shalom Memorial Chapel, the State of Israel Bonds Organization, Palm Beaches Jewish Federation, Hadassah, and was a synagogue administrator. In more recent years, she has lived with her daughter, Susan, and was a loving grandparent to Adina and Joseph Cosden and Scott and Chloe Halpern. Roz had a large network of friends wherever she lived.

Roz was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Mickey; and her aunts, Claire Weber and Marge Gross. She is survived by her sister, Joan (Kris) Knerr; her children, Susan Halpern Cosden and Ari Halpern; her four grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews. Roz will be remembered for her dry sense of humor, her love of animals, her passion for reading and travel, her fortitude, and for her commitment to liberal causes.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to the Best Friends Animal Society.

A Celebration of life service will be at 11:00 AM, Sunday, August 17, 2025 in the Chapel of Beth Shalom Memorial Chapel (835 Lee Road, Orlando, Florida) May Roz rest in peace and may her memory always be a blessing.
