Carl A. Rosin Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Carl August Rosin, of Wild Rose, aged 75, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, March 10, 2019 at his home. He was born in the Town of Lanark, Portage County on February 12, 1944 to the late William and Ann (Lawrence) Rosin. On May 8, 1971 he married the love of his life, Christine Sarnowski. Carl was a veteran, serving in the Army. He was a farmer, welder, mechanic, truck driver, and someone you called when you needed something fixed or done right now. He missed maybe 10 days of work over fifty years. His late father-in-law Leo summed him up well and paid him a great compliment when he once said, “When Carl takes hold of something, he generally moves it.” Carl was a true Iron Man of softball, playing for 40 years, mostly as a pitcher; he also enjoyed hunting and fishing. First and foremost to him was spending time with his family, who were rivaled in his affections only by the Milwaukee Brewers (and the Braves before that), who he managed through the radio or TV in almost every game for many decades. In his later years he adding coaching the Milwaukee Bucks to his résumé as well. He will be greatly missed by his wife, Christine; sons Mark (Kelly) and Andy (Audrey); grandchildren Leo, Brecken, Jade, and Eli; brother Roger (Carol) Rosin and sister Shirley (Lee) Jackson; sister-in-law Pauline Rosin; numerous nieces, nephews, and other relatives and friends. In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by brothers and sisters Lawrence Rosin, Ramona Rosin, Joyce Nelson, Ginger Clavette, Lorraine Jelinski, Gilbert Rosin, and William Rosin. In accordance with his stated wishes, no visitation or burial services are planned at this time. The Holly Funeral Home of Wild Rose is assisting the family with arrangements.
