September 25, 1963 — May 10, 2026

It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Gary L. Rosenberry, a cherished husband, father, brother, and friend. Gary departed this world on May 10, 2026, at the age of 62, leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and unwavering dedication to those he held dear. Gary was born on September 25, 1963, in Lewistown, Pennsylvania, into the loving arms of his parents, Robert Rosenberry and Brenda (Aumiller) Wileman. From a young age, Gary was instilled with the values of service, compassion, and resilience, traits that he carried with him throughout his life. He was predeceased by his parents and his sister, Tina. A proud graduate of Chief Logan High School, Gary's journey led him to serve his nation with honor in the United States Marine Corps, where he earned the rank of sergeant. This period of service was a testament to his unwavering commitment to protecting and caring for others. Following his military service, Gary dedicated his career to law enforcement, serving as a Pennsylvania State Trooper until his retirement. Not one to rest, he continued his service at the Perry County Prison until his second retirement. His colleagues and those he served remember him as a diligent and compassionate officer, always ready to lend a helping hand. In his personal life, Gary was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Rae (Quigley) Rosenberry. They were united in marriage on November 11, 2021, in a heartfelt ceremony in Las Vegas, Nevada. Together, they shared a life filled with adventure, exploring the vast beauty of the USA in their RV, making memories that would last a lifetime. Gary's family was his pride and joy. He leaves behind his loving sons, Gary Jr., and his companion Amanda, and Tyler, who will forever hold his spirit close. His surviving siblings, brother Robert and sister Shannon, along with his stepmother Cheryl, will cherish the memories. His legacy lives on through the countless lives he touched. He was a member of the American Legion, where he found camaraderie and shared in the fellowship of those who served. Gary was a caretaker by nature, always ensuring that those around him were cared for. His humor, sometimes mistaken for arrogance, was a reflection of his genuine spirit, and his ability to converse with anyone who would listen made every stranger a friend. He never met a conversation he didn't enjoy, and his stories brought warmth and joy to all who were fortunate enough to hear them. The family will hold a military honor memorial service at a later date to celebrate Gary's life and service, with details to be announced. In this time of sorrow, we find comfort in knowing that Gary's spirit lives on in the hearts of those who loved him. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you honor Gary by sharing a story or a memory of him with someone you love. May his memory be a blessing and his life a testament to the power of love, service, and laughter.
