Roslyn Leff
1933 – 2026
Roslyn Leff, 92, of Marlton, NJ passed away on June 21, 2026 following a succession of illnesses.
A child of the depression, Roslyn had a deep appreciation for the opportunities she had to live abroad as a young married woman, and to enjoy subsequent travel in Europe and the Caribbean. Her appreciations for culture and art were shaped by these opportunities while her passion for music and quality fashion were honed in her childhood by her parents, and a father who worked as a simple presser in New York’s garment industry but made sure his little girl was beautifully attired. Her determination to always present herself at her best was a thread throughout her life, and a symbol of her strong sense of appreciation.
Roslyn was incredibly generous and practiced tzedakah even when she had very little. Her generosity and desire to share what she loved with others was evident over the years as this life-long, avid reader volunteered to manage her community library; a true labor of love.
Stronger still were her attributes of resilience, perseverance, and a love of life that were indomitable! These characteristics as well as her ability to laugh at herself and truly listen to others, are the gifts she passes along to brother Barry, daughters Barbara and Brenda (and their supportive spouses Steve and Danny), deeply cherished grandchildren Justin, Sean, Brian, Monica and Dylan, their beloved spouses, and her great-children who provided pure joy; Molly and Jack.
Roslyn faced numerous challenges over the years but lived her life as an example of appreciation and grace, and will be deeply missed, and lovingly remembered.
Funeral services and burial are Tuesday, June 30 at 10 am at Beth Israel Cemetery in Woodbridge, NJ.
