Frederick Tiballi Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Stephen C. Gregory and Son Cremation Service on Feb. 14, 2026.
Frederick Primo Tiballi, 85, of Burlington, Vermont, passed away on February, 10, 2026, surrounded by family. He was born on April 23, 1940 in Republic, Pennsylvania, the son of Modesta and Primo Tiballi.

Fred graduated from Fort Lauderdale High School before earning his undergraduate and Juris Doctorate degrees from University of Florida. He practiced law in Fort Lauderdale, Florida and Burlington, Vermont and as he said many times, being a lawyer never felt like work.

Fred was kind, generous and fully embraced life. An avid reader, he was passionate about the US Constitution, loved skiing, sailing Moon Shadow and playing pickleball. He was happiest riding a tractor while volunteering at New Village Farm.

He leaves behind his beloved wife and caregiver Lynne Conlong Gilson Tiballi. He also leaves behind: daughter Brooke Tiballi Lochrie and husband Robert B. Lochrie III of Fort Lauderdale, Florida (grandsons John, James, and Andrew); daughter Leah Tiballi Murchie and husband G. Stewart Murchie of West Hartford, Connecticut (grandchildren Gus, Sophie, and Alice); son Craig Tiballi and wife Annabrooke Temple of San Francisco, California (grandson Reno); and step-daughter Lee Ann Gilson of Rome, Georgia. He is survived by his sister, Florence "Mitzi" Doumar of Pompano Beach, Florida; and his sister-in-law, Barbie Taylor of South Kingstown, Rhode Island.

Fred, affectionately known as Derf, always said, "Peace and Love."
