Alexander Denbo and Syble Denbo
Judge Alexander Denbo and Syble Denbo were the ultimate community minded citizens. In both the Jewish and secular communities throughout their lives, they contributed generously of their time, talent and treasure.
The Denbos lived in Burlington County but also had deep roots in the Trenton Jewish community as Syble had grown up in that community. Their charitable activities spanned both communities.
Judge Denbo was on the board of local community banks and business organizations. He was a strong supporter of the local schools as well.
Syble Denbo was a member of Adath Israel congregation and B’nai Israel congregation. She was a trailblazer: Syble participated in the 1947 NJ Constitutional Convention, an activity that was new for women at that time. Syble served as a volunteer and donor to most of the local Jewish communal organizations: Women for Greenwood House, Jewish Family & Children’s Service, Hadassah and Deborah Hospital. She was a tireless advocate for those in need.
The Denbos lived lives of purpose and connection ensuring that their legacy giving invested in the sustainability and future for the Jewish Community Foundation, Jewish Family and Children’s Service and Greenwood House.
