Dillon James Jennerich

May 31, 2004 - March 16, 2025

It is with profound sadness and a very heavy heart that we announce the passing of our beloved son, Dillon James Jennerich, who passed away on March 16, 2025, in Paramus, NJ, at the young age of 20.

Dillon was a kindhearted and compassionate young man who had a unique ability to bring joy and a smile to everyone he knew. His love for his family was unwavering, and he shared a special bond with his furry friend, Louie. He enjoyed listening to music, playing baseball, wrestling, snowboarding, and spending quality time hiking and camping with his uncles and cousins. Dillon had big dreams of becoming an entrepreneur and was driven to start his own business. He worked alongside his father at his father’s businesses, JJ’s Tree Service and Murray Contracting Company, where he learned the value of hard work and dedication.

Dillon is survived by his loving parents, Eileen (nee Costello) and James (Jimmy) Jennerich, and his cherished grandmother, Sarah Costello. He is also deeply missed by his aunts and uncles, Marie Costello, Kathy Costello, Rosemary and William Heffernan, Richard and Colleen Jennerich, Frank Costello, and William Costello, as well as his cousins Aidan, Austin, Sean, Brady, Kimberly, Brittany, Lindsay, and Caitlin. Dillon was predeceased by his grandparents, Walter and Rosemary Jennerich, and Patrick Costello. His memory will forever be held in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing that Dillon will forever be remembered as a kind soul and will remain forever in our hearts.

We will miss Dillon dearly.
