Kenneth R. Talini, 86, of Brick, NJ, formerly of New Milford, NJ, passed away peacefully on August 24, 2025 at his home, with his loving wife of 33 years Norma Talini nee Bajana.

Kenneth R Talini was born on July 2, 1939 to Romano R Talini and Lillian B Talini nee Louis, who have both preceded him in death.

Kenneth R Talini leaves behind his wife Norma Talini nee Bajana, his daughters Lisa Talini- Zamora, Debra (Ron) Talini-Holt, Nora (Carmine) Dambra; Grandchildren Ashley (Michael) Cromer, Matthew (Amber) Zarro, Chloe (Paul) Bogosian, Tiffany Talini, Christie (Josh) Paschal, 11 Great Children, Sister Beth (David) Talini-Cook.

It is with deep sorrow and profound respect that we gather our thoughts to commemorate the life of a remarkable soul who touched countless lives. Kenneth R. Talini worked for many years for Public Service Electric & Gas (PSE&G), he began his career there as a lineman and held many positions over the years until his retirement. His career stands as a testament to perseverance, responsibility and commitment, marked by milestones that reflected both in his personal life and career. Kenneth R. Talini was also an entrepreneur owning his own tree service with his longtime friend.

Outside of work, his interests turned to travel and nature, Kenneth R. Talini was an avid gardener, and a man that loved to explore the world around him. Grass did not grow under his feet, he was always looking forward to the next adventure, from deep sea or surf fishing to walking along the beach or the inlet. He ran in marathons, bicycled, and even hiked to the top of Machu Picchu in Peru. He was diverse, whatever his chosen pursuit, his energy and joy inspired those around them.

Family remained at the heart of his life, although sometimes separated by miles he was a devoted parent, and a very cherished partner.

As we reflect on his life, we are reminded of the countless ways in which he shaped our world. His legacy is not confined to achievements or accolades but in the love and kindness he shared. The stories told by friends, the memories cherished by family all form a tapestry of meaning that will endure. In times of both joy and challenges, he remained a steadfast source of comfort, strength, and understanding, encouraging us to reach for our dreams.

To honor Kenneth R. Talini's extraordinary life is to live with greater compassion, and to hold dear the connections that bind us. Though words cannot fully capture the impact he has made, the echoes of his spirit will remain with us always.

The loss of such a cherished man leaves an irreplaceable void, we take solace in knowing that his life was lived with purpose and grace. In mourning, we find gratitude-thankful for the moments we shared, the wisdom he imparted, and the examples he set for us to emulate.

The Family of Kenneth R. Talini would like to extend warm gratitude and many thanks to everyone that assisted in caring for him, in the many ways each of them came forward with love in their hearts.

As we say goodbye, we pledge to carry forward the lessons learned, and the kindness received. Kenneth R. Talini's memory will serve as a beacon, guiding us toward a life of empathy and hope. May his journey onward be peaceful, and may we honor him not only in words but in the lives we live. This is not good-bye, this is.... Until we meet again.

Kenneth R. Talini will be interred at George Washington Memorial Park, Paramus, NJ.

A private memorial service will follow at a future date.

Services are entrusted to Jersey Shore Cremation Service, 43 Taylor Avenue, Manasquan - JerseyShoreCremation.com
