He served there for four years, then in Toledo, Ohio, for 11 years, then as a pastor on a reservation in Cibecue for eight years before retiring due to health issues.

(Susan) Rosenau of Wisconsin and Peter (Jodi) Rosenau of Pennsylvania; seven grandchildren; his parents, Russell and Norma Rosenau of Minnesota; two brothers, Chris (Connie) Rosenau of Georgia and Mark (Susan) Rosenau of Minnesota; and many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends.
