Alexander Rossulek
September 25, 1940 — November 8, 2012
Mr. Alexander F. Rossulek, 72, of Frederick, Maryland, passed away suddenly on Thursday, November 8, 2012 at the Frederick Memorial Hospital. He was the husband of Patricia Hunkele Rossulek, his wife of 44 years.
Born September 25, 1940 in Czechoslovakia he was the son of the late Alexander and Maria Netroufal Rossulek.
Alex received his undergraduate and MBA from Heidelberg University in Germany.
He moved to the US in 1966 to work for Siemens Corporation and met his wife Pat on a ski hill in the Pocono Mountains. After their marriage in 1968, they began their journey together enjoying international travels, sports car rally races, and starting a family. Alex was relocated multiple times around the United States and abroad as he took positions of increasing responsibility within several firms specializing in medical diagnostic and oncology treatment instrumentation. In 2008, Alex and Pat settled in Frederick, MD where he semi-retired, offering his business acumen to small business owners through his consulting firm and volunteering with SCORE a non-profit organization dedicated to small businesses. Always leading a very active and full life, Alex remodeled multiple homes, rebuilt antique wooden boats, and refurbished Vietnam-war era aircraft. His real passion was flying. Having earned his pilot’s license in 1968 he flew small aircraft and gliders and was an active member of the Mid Atlantic Soaring Association serving as the Membership Chair until the time of his passing. Alex will be remembered for his intellect, quick wit, the love for his family, and always putting the best interest of others first by tirelessly working to improve the lives of those around him.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by two daughters Michelle I. Rossulek and husband Jay Bergeron of MA and Suzanne McGuin and husband Mike of Ill, and a sister Petra Rorvik and husband Bjorn of Norway.
The family will receive friends at the Stauffer Funeral Home, 1621 Opossumtown Pike, Frederick, Maryland, for a Memorial Visitation, on Saturday November 17, from 10:00 am until the Memorial Service at 11:00 am.
