Tom J. Falcone

Tom J. Falcone, a man of generous spirit and skilled craftsmanship, passed away peacefully on January 6, 2026, at his sister’s home in Lincroft, New Jersey. Born on December 23, 1967, in Somerville, New Jersey, Tom's journey through life was marked by love and dedication.

Predeceased by his parents, Tom C. and Charlotte (Sims) Falcone, his stepfather, Jack Keller, his dear son, Tommy Falcone, and his stepdaughter, Erica Araujio.  Tom's legacy is carried forward by his loving and devoted wife, Kathleen (Diehl) Falcone. Their marriage, which began on September 28, 2019, was a testament to their mutual care and unwavering support for one another. Tom also leaves behind his cherished sisters, Melody Falcone and her husband Mickey Major of Jackson, New Jersey, Tammy Falcone of Howell, New Jersey, Kimberly Williams and her husband Kevin of Lincroft, New Jersey, and Candace Walker of Jackson, New Jersey. His stepson, Edwin O'Fray Jr. and his wife Deidree of Manhattan, New York. All will fondly remember his guiding presence. Tom's extended family, including many nieces and nephews, will miss his loving nature and handy skills.

Tom spent most of his life in Hazlet, New Jersey, before moving to Milford, Pennsylvania, in August of 2024. His professional life was characterized by his dedication as a skilled builder for Whiteman Builders in Highlands, New Jersey, from which he retired after years of committed service. His work not only showcased his craftsmanship but also his ability to create structures that would stand the test of time, much like the memories he built with his family and friends.

Beyond his professional achievements, Tom was a dedicated Volunteer Fireman for the Keyport, Raritan Hose Company in Keyport, New Jersey. His love for hunting, fishing, and boating spoke volumes about his appreciation for the great outdoors and the simple pleasures of life. Tom's commitment to his community and his passion for helping others were evident in every aspect of his life.

Above all, Tom was always there for his sisters, embodying the role of a protective and caring brother. His absence will be deeply felt, but his spirit will continue to inspire those who knew him. Tom was a man who could be best described as loving, handy, and generous. His impact on the world was as profound as the love he shared, and his memory will be cherished forever.

He will be greatly missed, always loved, and never forgotten.  In respect of Tom’s wishes, he will be privately cremated.  Shore Point Funeral Home and Cremation Services, Inc. 3269 Highway/Route 35 North, Hazlet, New Jersey  07730 was entrusted with arrangements.  For more information or to send condolences to the family, please visit www.shorepointfh.com.
