John was beloved my many and knew no strangers. For those of you who may have missed the details surrounding his untimely death, I wanted to provide another place where you can learn about John and his life.

We miss John very much and I think about him every day. When I sit down on the bed in the morning and put my shoes on, I always think of him. Not only was he my brother but he was my first friend and my companion for many years. Please take a few minutes to check out the links above if you have not already. Thank you.

Help Fund the John Rosen Memorial 5K and 1 Mile Fun Walk We are now accepting donations from anyone who would like to help us finance this event. Our biggest expense is paying for the Town of Vienna Police Department's services on race day as well as race insurance and professional timing. We want to keep the actual registration fees low for the event. And we want to encourage people to donate money to the Spina Bifida Foundation. Please consider making a donation using the Go Fund Me link https://www.gofundme.com/tqu4kck4. We do have some small business lined up as sponsors but still are looking for more donations to make the event possible.  John Rosen Memorial 5K https://www.gofundme.com/tqu4kck4
