It is with overwhelming sorrow that we announce the loss of our beloved Iris Rosenberg. Iris passed away on August 14, 2023, at the age of 79. Iris, a native of Brooklyn, New York, grew up in Miami Beach, Florida, and lived most of her adult life in North Miami.
Iris graduated from the University of Miami, earning her bachelor’s degree in education. The majority of her professional career was spent teaching middle school English, imparting her love of learning and the power of words to her students.
Iris will live on forever in the hearts of her daughter, Sue (Rob), her granddaughter, Becca, her grand-dog, Barley, her former husband, Marshall (Joanne), her nephews, Steve (John), Bobby, and Tony (Jodi), her dearest Carl, and her lifelong friends who she always considered to be family. Iris is predeceased by her parents, Barney and Ruth, and her brother, Jerry.
A celebration of Iris’ life will be held on Sunday, August 20, 2023, at Dorsey – E. Earl Smith Funeral Home, 3041 Kirk Road, Lake Worth.
