Kevin Eberle Obituary

Kevin John Eberle (October 24, 1950 - February 28, 2025), 74, of Hillsborough, NJ, passed away peacefully in his sleep on Friday, February 28, 2025.
Born on October 24, 1950, to Henry A. Eberle and Doreen Eberle, Kevin was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend. He is survived by his devoted wife of 41 years, Susan Eberle; his children, Kevin (40), Timothy (38), Gregory (54), and Erin (52); and his cherished grandchildren, Joshua Richmond Bell and Harper McKenna Eberle. He is also survived by his siblings, Kurt, Colleen, and Henry.?
A highly skilled tile and marble contractor, Kevin took great pride in his craftsmanship and left his mark on countless homes and businesses. In his later years, he became a livery driver, earning the respect of colleagues and passengers alike with his warm personality and reliability. Beyond his work, he had a deep passion for coaching and spent 24 years shaping young athletes as a dedicated Pop Warner football coach for Watchung Hills, where he also served on the board.?
Kevin had a love for the simple joys in life-his passion for cooking filled his home with warmth, and his garden was a testament to his patience and care. A devoted animal lover, he found joy in caring for pets and supporting animal welfare. Whether tending to his plants or preparing a meal for family and friends, he found happiness in bringing people together.?
Above all, Kevin was a loving father and grandfather who found his greatest joy in his family. His kindness, humor, and unwavering support will be dearly missed by all who knew him.?
A private memorial will be held by the family at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations in Kevin's honor may be made to the Somerset Regional Animal Shelter at https://srasnj.org/.?
His legacy of love, dedication, and generosity will live on in those who had the privilege of knowing him.

I am so honored you were a wonderful part of my life for over 20 years, and that you got to meet and spend quality time with your wee granddaughter Harper. Thank you for the love you have shown your son, Harper and I, for the kindness and for the amazing moments that matter like so many family meals anchored by your delightful cooking. Thank you for the care you always showed me, especially during difficult times. Thank you for the fun joy rides to the airport all those years. Thank you for all the home projects you spearheaded. Thank you for teaching me to just let things be. You would always say "no problem" and "keep it simple" which are simple phrases that have a very positive impact on me. Thank you for your son, who is the light of my whole world. You are always and forever our blessing Big Kevin, and you live on in our hearts. Our little girl will be a tremendous gardener and have a zest for cooking just like you. Rest peacefully forever, I love you Big Kevin.

I was so sorry to hear about Kevin´s passing. I have so many fond memories of Kevin at our home in Hope NJ. So many good times and laughs. So thankful for Facebook so we could reconnect after our paths took us in different directions.
