Nadine Klindt, a remarkable woman whose life was a testament to love and dedication, passed away on September 23, 2025, surrounded by her cherished family. Born on February 13, 1959, she spent her life passionately devoted to both her loved ones and her career, which focused on helping children with disabilities at the Matheny School and Hospital, as well as through early intervention programs at various elementary schools.
Nadine was a graduate of UMDNJ, where she earned her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. Her strong-willed and passionate spirit shone through in everything she did. She was fiercely devoted to her family and would go above and beyond for those she loved. Nadine's generous nature was evident in her willingness to lend her time and energy to anyone in need. Her legacy of kindness and support left an indelible mark on all who were fortunate enough to know her.
In addition to her professional accomplishments, Nadine found joy in life's simple pleasures. She loved gardening, a hobby that brought her peace and fulfillment, and she enjoyed roller skating, always eager to embrace the fun of life. However, one of her greatest joys came from spending time with her grandchildren—William, Lexi (Jake), Riley, Madeline, Liam, and Nathan—who were the lights of her life.
Nadine is survived by her loving husband, Otto, with whom she shared 42 wonderful years of marriage. Together, they created a beautiful family, including their four children: Nicole Quenzer and her husband, Philip; Jennifer Myrick; Terri Malone and her husband, Bill; and Otto E. Klindt and his wife, Joanne. Nadine also leaves behind her beloved siblings: Sharon Johansen and her husband, Erik; Harold Egan and his wife, Kim; Andy Egan and his wife, Valerie; Michele Egan and her wife, Cindy and her life long friend Lori Rivera. She was fortunate to be surrounded by many nieces and nephews who admired her deeply.
The world has lost a true gem in Nadine Klindt. Her unwavering spirit, nurturing heart, and cherished memories will forever echo in the hearts of her family and friends. Her life was a radiant example of love in action, and she will be deeply missed.
