Marvin K. Broder, 100, peacefully at home. He is survived by his adored and devoted wife, Lois P. Broder. An avid skier, pilot, and ocean sailor, Marv was devoted to his family, where his humor, advice and support were without limit. A Yale graduate, Marv served as a Lt. Commander in the US Navy, helped establish Israel's Navy, and built homes throughout Monmouth County. Marv served on the Rumson Board of Education, Monmouth Reform Temple, and the Monmouth Medical Center. After his board service to the Medical Center, Marv continued his commitment as a volunteer in its Emergency Department, where he was described as "an angel" by unaccompanied patients and worried family members. Predeceased by his children Carley and Chip (Celeste), he leaves offspring that he and Lois nurtured, Mike Broder (Rita Rubin), Betsy Broder (David Wentworth), Peter Stern (Jill), Bob Stern (Susan), Jim Stern, Peggy Wallach (Steve), 15 grandchildren, and eight great grandchildren.

Marvin was my boss when I started working for the Gross-Morton Company in 1946 and he was the Superintendent building a 400 home project. He was an inspiration for me and tried to help a kid just coming out of the U.S. Navy. My heartfelt sympathies go out to his family.

To the Broder Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.
