Kevin J. Boehler, 62, of Hazlet, passed away on Tuesday surrounded by his family at Newark Beth Israel Hospital.
Kevin was born in Red Bank and raised in West Keansburg. After graduating from Raritan High School, Kevin began a career in Civil Engineering. He worked for Colliers Engineering and Design (formerly Maser Consulting) for over thirty years overseeing the completion of numerous roads, bridges, and athletic fields. Kevin spoke often about how much he loved his profession, being outside and working “with the guys.”
Kevin would meet the love of his life, Barbara, at Strathmore Lanes in 1985 and a few years later in 1987 the two would marry and start their lives in Aberdeen, eventually moving to Hazlet to raise their family. He was an avid sports fan who religiously cheered on his favorite sports teams; the New York Rangers, Mets and Giants. He was a voracious reader, gardener and loved to do woodwork; Kevin’s garden is known for being meticulously kept. Kevin was a devoted father and coach, spending as much time as possible watching his children’s sporting events. Kevin will be most missed for sharp intellect, sense of humor, and his ability to always tell it as it is.
Kevin is predeceased by his parents Tony and June Boehler and his sister Lynn Zessos.
Kevin is survived by his loving wife Barbara Boehler; his children Christine Boehler and her husband Bill McGuire, Kevin Boehler Jr. and his wife Laura, Brian Boehler, and Bobbie Boehler; his siblings Steven Boehler and Sandra Hoffmann; his beloved grandchildren Alexandra and Remi; and many loving nieces and nephews.
Visitation will be Tuesday, July 5th from 4:00-8:00 PM at the Holmdel Funeral Home, 26 S. Holmdel Rd, Holmdel. A mass of Catholic burial will be held Wednesday, July 6th at 10:00 AM at St. Benedicts RC Church, 165 Bethany Rd, Holmdel. An entombment will follow at St. Josephs Cemetery, Keyport.

I would like to express my sincere condolences to Kev's entire family and friends. Even though I have never personally met Kev, I did develop a friendship through our fantasy baseball league that expanded over 20 years. Always enjoyed his wit and humor, and certainly his opinions about life.
Always looked forward to the start of baseball season, so I could renew our friendship for another season. I will truly miss him moving forward.

My condolences to the Boehler family. In this tragic moment, I hope you remember all the joyous moments you have had with family and let these memories be the consolation you need in the dark times. I was fortunate to work with Kevin over the last 9 years and his passion/dedication for his job was unsurpassed. His ability to speak his mind was his signature. He will sorely be missed.

The news is shocking I just saw him about a month ago in the office we always joked when we saw each other and both said " are you still working here I thought they got rid of you LOL!

To the entire Boehler family I am so sorry for your loss. He talked about all of you guys so highly he was so so proud of each one of you. I was fortunate enough to work with Kevin for two summers. Those two summers were the best summers I have had. It truly wasn't work when I was with Kevin. The funniest most inappropriate person out there. The shit he would say on the job site made me laugh all day long. Such a genuine guy that everybody loved. I'll never forget those summers with Kevin.
