Regina "Gina" Leigh Rosener

Regina "Gina" Leigh Rosener, age 69, of Janesville, passed away peacefully at her home on September 28, 2026.

Born on August 21, 1957, in San Diego, California, Gina was the daughter of Robert and Irene (Morris) Klinefelter. She spent the first couple of years of her life in San Diego before moving with her family to North Carolina and later they settled in Iowa, where she attended school and graduated from Le Grand High School with the Class of 1975. Gina was first married to Rick Jay, together they had two children and later divorced. She later married David Rosener, and together they welcomed a son. Gina and David shared 39 years together while raising their three children.

In her twenties, Gina moved to Minnesota, where she established her home and devoted herself to both her career and family. She worked alongside her daughter at ABC Services in Le Center until her retirement in 2016. Retirement provided Gina the opportunity to enjoy many of the things she loved most. She spent several winters in Florida before settling into a winter home in Arizona, where she built a cherished community of friends and meaningful connections. Gina also worked part-time at Hummingbird Café in Sun City, a job she greatly enjoyed.

Gina found happiness in life's simple pleasures. She loved gardening, playing cards, collecting gems and stones, and creating jewelry from her treasured collections. She enjoyed cooking, baking, spending time outdoors, relaxing on the beach, and making memories at the cabin. Above all, she treasured time spent with her family and friends.

Her children will fondly remember their mother's legendary 3:00 a.m. coffee conversations. Gina was loving, resilient, and determined. Possessing a positive persistence that some affectionately called stubbornness, she was quick-witted, loved to laugh, and brought warmth and humor to those around her. Her strength, laughter, and unwavering love for her family will be deeply missed.

Gina is survived by her children, Heather (Brad) Arndt of Janesville, Robert Rosener of Rogers, and Jesse Rosener of Cumberland, Wisconsin; grandchildren, Chase (Grant) Forman, Hayden Arndt, and Keelan Rosener; former husband, David Rosener; brothers, Larry Klinefelter and Patrick (Elaine) Klinefelter; as well as nieces, a nephew, other relatives, and many friends.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Irene Klinefelter.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, October 10, 2026, at St. Paul Lutheran Church on German Lake in Cleveland. Interment will follow at German Lake Cemetery. Visitation will be held at the church on Saturday from 9:00 a.m. until the time of service.
