WESTERLO — “John C. Rosenthal I entered the Lord’s loving arms on Sunday, Aug. 25, 2024 at his home surrounded by his loving wife, children, and family,” his family wrote in a tribute.

Born in Albany on March 6, 1949, he was the son of the late Charles E. Rosenthal Jr. and Alberta S. (née Masa) Rosenthal.
