Jeffrey W. Riehl

Jeffrey W. Riehl, a cherished member of his family and community, passed away on March 12, 2025, at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Brunswick, New Jersey, after a courageous battle. He was born on September 20, 1958, in Flemington, New Jersey at Hunterdon Medical Center, and dedicated a significant portion of his life to public service as an Inspector for the Hillsborough Municipal Utilities Authority, where he worked for an incredible 35 years before retiring in January 2025.

A man of friendly disposition, Jeff had a genuine love for those around him. He created lasting friendships throughout his life and enjoyed sharing moments with friends, particularly at the Neshanic Inn. His engaging personality brought warmth and joy to gatherings, leaving a positive impact on many.

Jeff was a sports fan, cheering for the New York Football Giants and the New York Yankees, as well placing an occasional bet on college basketball. His appreciation for life's simpler pleasures was evident in his love for listening to country music and enjoying off-shore fishing. He also derived enjoyment from the small thrill of buying weekly scratch-off lottery tickets, a tradition that brought him joy.

In his personal life, Jeff treasured his time spent traveling to Aruba with his beloved wife, Rebecca A. Fenwick. Together, they shared a life filled with love and laughter. He is also survived by his daughter, Laura Radcliff, and his mother, Dorothy Hillpot Schultz. His legacy continues through his siblings: Judy Schultz of Pennsylvania, Jay Riehl of Florida, and Tim Riehl of Pennsylvania. He will be remembered fondly by his sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Amy and Russell Frank of Neshanic, NJ, as well as Paul and Connie Fenwick of Hillsborough, NJ, as well as several nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews, and Jeff's loyal companion, Toga an Aussiedoodle, was also a significant part of his life, providing love and companionship.

He is preceded in death by his father, Jay Riehl.

Jeffrey W. Riehl will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His kindness, warmth, and dedication to family and friends leave an enduring legacy.

A Celebration of Life is being planned for a later date. Please check this webpage for any updated information.
