Franklin Memorial Park has served the needs of central New Jersey residents for years. Dedicated to providing a peaceful and secure location for loved ones to remember departed family members and friends, the tranquil setting, carefully maintained property and beautiful landscaping offer a sense of peace and security for visitors. In addition to offering traditional ground burials, the facility also offers cremation services. A Chapel of Meditation and Chapel of Serenity are two mausoleums that contain private chapels and quiet locations for families to hold gatherings, memorials, or to reflect on the lives of loved ones and friends. Candlelight services, niches, a Cremation Centre and a number of resources and remembrance programs are available to family members at Franklin Memorial Park. Sprawling over 60 acres of grounds, Franklin Memorial Park was founded in the 1930s and offers a maintenance and preservation fund so the property is cared for annually. Franklin Memorial Park is a family-owned cemetery that takes pride in their ability to offer personal and customized services to area residents. Because Franklin Memorial Park is designed to look more like a park than a cemetery, visitors won't find upright headstones or tombstones throughout the property. Bronze memorials on concrete or granite bases are placed at the foot of each grave, which also helps to facilitate grounds-keeping and foot traffic through the property. Families have a variety of burial options at Franklin Memorial Park, including side-by-side plots, single plots with extra depth, or plots for cremated remains. Staff of the facility have offered cremation services for over three decades with a variety of choices for interment, including gallery and pedestal niches, niches with glass or marble fronts, and exterior granite fronts, which are currently under construction. Located in Middlesex County, Franklin Memorial Park is located just southeast of New Brunswick, with easy access to the area the Interstates 287 and 95. Visitors can take Somerset Street or Lincoln Highway to reach the property, located in a quiet, peaceful and tranquil suburban area just east of Six Mile Run Reservoir Site. |
