Janet F. (Caffrey) Gordon

Janet Frances Gordon (Caffrey), 93, of Tinton Falls, New Jersey, passed away peacefully on January 18, 2025, at home surrounded by her loving family.  Janet was born on June 15, 193,1 in Brooklyn, New York to Julia and Edward Caffrey.  She grew up as an only child, losing her mom when she was 13 years old.  You cannot pour into a few paragraphs what an amazing woman she was. She married her beloved husband, Warren, on January 7, 1951, and was married for 62 years, until his death in June of 2013. Their union produced six children, Bob, Warren, Diane, Jeanne, Phyllis and Carol. In 1957, they moved their family from Brooklyn, New York to Hazlet (Fleetwood Park), New Jersey. She loved her home and had a very busy life keeping all of her children in check. Life flew by and before you knew it there were many grandchildren in the mix. She had a deep faith and was a devout Catholic. She was loving, kind, supportive and caring.  The doors to her home were always open to everyone. She loved her community at St. Anselm’s in Tinton Falls, and had many friends there. She sang in the choir there for many years. She lived her life for her family. Janet welcomed every new spouse and every baby into her life and into her heart. She was 93 years old and had an amazing memory.  Janet remembered the good, the bad, and the ugly.   She will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.

Janet was predeceased by her parents, Edward and Julia (Ratigan) Caffrey, her beloved son Warren Gordon and devoted husband Warren Samuel Gordon.  Janet is survived by her loving children, Bob Gordon of Tinton Falls, Diane Duncan (George) of Hazlet, Jeanne Gordon of Red Bank, Phyllis Francese (Eugene) of Little Neck, NY, Carol Eastmond (Edward) of Marlboro, her daughter in law Agnes Gordon of Brentwood.
