The Honorable David G. Eynon, J.S.C. (Ret.) 

Age 95, of Medford, formerly of Haddonfield

On November 16, 2024, the Honorable David G. Eynon, J.S.C. (Ret.), age 95, of Medford, NJ, formerly of Haddonfield; predeceased by his loving wife of nearly 65 years, Carol I. Eynon; Loving father of the Honorable Linda W. Eynon, P.J.F.P. and Nancy K. Eynon Roper (Michael); Devoted Grandfather of Jessica Bander (Austen) and Abigail Asbell (John); Beloved great grandfather of John Michael Bander, Walker David Bander and Isaac Crawford Bander; step-great grandfather to Breanne Asbell, Scott Asbell  and Luke Asbell; Dear brother/sister-in-law of H. Korb and Josette Eynon and brother-in-law of Richard Webb Irwin; Uncle to Matthew Eynon (Michelle), Stephanie Eynon and his great niece and nephew, Samantha and Tayler Eynon.

David graduated from Muhlenberg College and the University of Pennsylvania School of Law. He began his law career at Archer & Greiner, there after forming a firm with the Honorable George Farrell, J.S.C. and Sidney McCord.  He served as a Municipal Court Judge for many years before being sworn in on the Camden County bench, starting on the County Court and then the Superior Court (including serving as Criminal Presiding Judge). He served for 18 years until his retirement in 1996, and then served on recall for an additional 13 years.  To David, there was no bigger honor than being appointed to the bench, and no better job.

He enjoyed fishing and boating in his younger years on Lake Winnipesauke and the Jersey shore, but was really an avid golfer, spending most Saturday mornings on the course at Tavistock Country Club with a devoted golfing group.  He most enjoyed spending time with friends and family; particularly with his granddaughters and great-grandsons at holidays and in the Outer Banks.

David’s family will receive friends on Saturday, December 14th from 9 am to 11:45 am, followed by a Memorial Service at 12 pm, at the Haddonfield United Methodist Church.  Interment will be private.  In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in honor of David may be made to the Camden County Bar Foundation, the New Jersey State Bar Foundation or to the charity of one’s choice.
