December 1, 1941 – October 6, 2025
Elaine Joyce Brandt, 83, of Toms River, New Jersey, passed away peacefully on October 6, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. Born on December 1, 1941, in Lakewood, New Jersey, to George and Elsie Hulseart, Elaine's life was a beautiful reflection of love, creativity, and devotion to family.
Elaine shared 65 wonderful years of marriage with her beloved husband, George G. Brandt. Together, they built a life filled with laughter, love, and cherished memories that will live on through generations.
She was the loving mother of Vicky L. Brandt-Dodson, Todd G. Brandt, Scott G. Brandt, and Craig G. Brandt. Elaine was also a proud grandmother to Matthew Brandt, Justin Brandt and wife Samantha, Jacqualynn Cinalli and husband Nicolas, and Jarred Brandt, and a devoted great-grandmother to Jaxson Brandt and Nico Cinalli. Her family was the center of her world, and she filled their lives with warmth, kindness, and unconditional love.
Elaine was the heart of her home - a devoted wife, mother, and homemaker who created an atmosphere of joy and togetherness. Every holiday and special occasion was beautifully decorated and lovingly prepared, a true testament to her talent for crafts and home décor. Her creativity and eye for detail were also shared with the community through Country Daze, the country décor shop she and George owned and operated for many years. The store was a reflection of Elaine's artistic spirit - warm, welcoming, and full of charm.
Beyond her love for family and creativity, Elaine will be remembered for her generous heart, her quiet strength, and her unwavering support of those around her. She was always ready to lend a hand, offer comforting words, or share a smile that could brighten anyone's day.
Elaine's passing leaves an immeasurable void in the hearts of all who knew her, but her love, lessons, and light will continue to shine through her family and friends. Her family takes comfort in knowing she is now at peace, surrounded by the beauty she so lovingly created in this world.
