It is with great sadness that we announce that Bill G Decker, 43, of Waretown, NJ passed away on Sunday, October 17, 2021 surrounded by family and loved ones at Southern Ocean Medical Center. Billy will be sorely missed by his loving wife of 17 years, Laurie Peckham Decker and four beautiful children : George(16), Melissa(15), Grace(14) and Jacob(12). Billy is remembered for being a quick and easy friend, his wry sense of humor, love of being on the water - whether it be surfing, boating or just spending time with friends on the water, and for his curious obsession with Volkswagen Beetles. But most of all he will be remembered as a close friend, a loving husband, a dear brother, and a wonderful father.
Billy was born November 30, 1977 to Frederick and Karyl Decker of Beachwood,NJ. He graduated from Toms River High School South and served 5 years in the Army achieving the rank of Sergeant. He spent several years in Japan with the Army, taking advantage of being on Okinawa to continue his surfing. He spent much of his career as a owner/operator of a delivery service Jersey Shore Snacks and as a driver for other companies, most recently the US Postal Service.
In addition to his wife and children, Billy is survived by his parents Frederick and Karyl Decker, and his siblings, Joseph and wife, Tracey Decker, John and wife, Kerrie Decker and Michelle and husband, Marc Venverloh as well as 11 loving nieces and nephews.
Viewing will be held on Monday, October 25, 2021 from 5:30-8:30 pm at the Barnegat Funeral Home, 841 West Bay Ave., Barnegat. Interment with military honors is on Tuesday at 11:30 am at the Bg. Gen. Wm. C. Doyle Vet. Mem. Cemetery, 50 Province Line Rd, Wrightstown, NJ. (www.BarnegatFH.com)
