Obituary Details for Denver Robert Zogg

Denver Robert Zogg, 98, of East Brunswick, NJ, passed away peacefully at home on August 11, 2025. Born on January 14, 1927, in New Brunswick and raised in Milltown, Denver was cherished for his quick wit, generous spirit, and deep devotion to his family.

Denver’s life was one of hard work, adventure, and curiosity about the world. As a young man, he proudly served in the Merchant Marines, traveling to far-off destinations such as Italy and Japan. Over the years, he wore many hats — farmer, butcher’s assistant, papermill worker — before joining Bristol Myers Squibb, where he specialized in refrigeration until his retirement. Whatever the job, Denver approached it with tireless dedication and pride.

He had a zest for life that shone through in countless ways. He loved the great outdoors, whether casting a fishing line or setting out on a hunting trip. He was a passionate boxing fan who followed the greats with enthusiasm, and a devoted WWE watcher who rarely missed a match. And when it came to food, Denver’s love knew no bounds — from hearty home-cooked favorites to unfamiliar dishes he’d never tried, he embraced every culinary experience, savoring not just the flavors but the company around the table.

Friends and family will also remember his wonderfully corny sense of humor — the kind that could make a whole room groan and laugh at the same time. His quick one-liners and playful teasing were part of his signature charm. Denver’s happiest moments were spent surrounded by family, whether at a noisy holiday dinner, telling stories on the porch, or simply sitting together over coffee. His family was his anchor, his pride, and his greatest joy, and he never let a day pass without making sure they knew how much they meant to him.

He was preceded in death by his first wife, Antonetta Zogg (1991); his second wife, Margaret Zogg (2020); his daughter, Maureen Novello (2023); his son, Denver Robert Zogg Jr. (1994); and his sister, Emma Henderson (2018). He is survived by his brother, William Zogg; his daughter, EmmaLee Lurker, and her husband, Larry Lurker; his son-in-law, Vincent James Novello II; his grandchildren, Vincent James Novello III and Ashley Lurker; his granddaughter-in-law, Roseann Novello; his great-grandchildren, Vincent James Novello IV and Jillian Novello; and his great-great-grandchild, Jaxon Sachatelli.

A funeral service will be held at Rezem Funeral Home on Friday, August 15, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., followed by burial at Van Lieu Cemetery at 1:00 p.m.

Denver’s life was rich in love, laughter, and the simple pleasures that make a life well-lived. His warmth, humor, and unwavering devotion will forever live on in the hearts of all who knew him. He will be deeply missed.

Madeline Dorothy Ebinger (née Weber), age 65, of Manalapan, New Jersey passed away on Wednesday, July 30, 2025. Madeline was born December 11, 1959 in East Brunswick, New Jersey to Joseph and Ada (Ann) Weber.

Madeline dedicated much of her life to the art of teaching, both in her career and in her personal life. Her students adored her, and she cared for them as if they were her own. She held onto countless fond memories of her students, speaking of them warmly even years later. Madeline constantly gave back by sharing her deep knowledge and experience with fellow educators. She had a gift for making learning enjoyable, and her impact on her students was profound. To them, she wasn’t just a teacher; she was an advocate—a trusted, comforting presence in their lives. Even after retiring from the classroom, Madeline's passion for teaching lived on through her time with her grandchildren. She filled their days with creative projects and made sure they were equipped with the tools and wisdom to thrive.

Madeline was an avid fan of Bruce Springsteen, found joy in traveling the world with her husband, going on girls trips with her best friends, and cherished holidays with her loved ones. Wildwood Crest was her happy place—surrounded by her family, the beach, fire pits with s’mores, and beautiful sunsets.

Above all else, Madeline's family was the greatest treasure of her life, and she devoted herself to them with unwavering love and care. In recent years, she gained the title of Grammy—a role she held with great pride, and one which came to her so effortlessly. She took immense joy in spending time with her husband, children, and grandchildren, attending their many events, while cheering them on every step of the way. Even in her final days, she remained focused on their well-being, a powerful testament to the selflessness and strength that defined her character.

Madeline is survived by her husband of almost 37 years, Donald Ebinger; three sons, Eric Ebinger, Craig Ebinger and his wife Samantha Ebinger, John Ebinger and his wife Athena Ebinger; two grandsons, Jaxon Ebinger and Cody Ebinger; granddaughter Audrey Ebinger; six siblings, Joseph (Joey) Weber, Jr. and his wife Donna Shear, Ann (Sissy) Weber-Rodriguez and her husband Maurice Rodriguez, Mary Lesko and her husband Marc Lesko, Arthur (Artie) Weber, John (Johnny) Weber, and Patricia (Patty) Dill and her husband Jeffrey (Jeff) Dill; a brother-in-law Richard (Ricky) Ebinger and his wife Cathy Ebinger; a sister-in-law Kathy Kowacz and her husband Edward (Ed) Kowacz; as well as many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.
