Gregory Oakes Obituary
Gregory Oakes, 65 of Toms River, NJ, passed away on November 29, 2024. He was a lifelong New Jersey resident growing up in Monmouth Beach and eventually settling in Jackson where he created cherished memories with family and friends.
Greg is a retired member of the Carpenters Union. He could build or fix anything and frequently used his skills to help family and friends.

He is survived by his beloved children: Marissa Losquadro and her husband Jon, Gregory Oakes and his partner Taylor, Jessica Oakes and her husband Richard, and Emily Oakes and her husband Matthew. He is also survived by his sisters, Marianne Incardone and Nancy Oakes; his sister-in-law, Mary Oakes; his nieces, Megan, Katie, and Maura; his nephews, Patrick, and Liam; and his Aunt Gert Cook, with whom he shared a special bond. Greg was also a proud grandfather to Teagan, Brody, and Declan, who brought immense joy into his life.
