One of the older communities in New Jersey, the Township of Washington is a small town located only a few minutes south of New York City in the northeast corner of the state. The inhabitants here pride themselves on local traditions, customs and manners.

Part of that tradition is the variety of religious faiths and services provided by the township cemetery. Since the early 1980s, non-sectarian Garden of Memories Mausoleum and Cemetery staff at this moderately sized cemetery has striven to provide excellent care and services for the relatives and friends of loved ones who have passed on, and offer multi-faith options for residents in and around the Township of Washington.

Located in Bergen County, the Garden of Memories Mausoleum and Cemetery is nestled between rivers and lakes, and is surrounded by trees that offer a sense of serenity and seclusion for mourners, though only moments away from the bustle of major metropolitan cities. Staff members at Garden of Memories pride themselves on their ability to help provide compassionate services for relatives traveling from near or far to attend burial services on the well-cared for grounds of Garden of Memories Mausoleum and Cemetery.

With above ground and in-ground headstones, plaques and memorials, the grounds at Garden of Memories provide visitors with a glimpse into the past, with rolling and manicured lawns dotted with trimmed trees and well watered shrubbery and floral beds throughout the property. Visitors are welcome to visit on Mondays through Fridays during normal daylight hours.

Home of author Mary Higgins Clark and actor Jeffrey Nordling, Township of Washington is still small compared to most city standards, but that serves as an advantage to its inhabitants, who wouldn't have it any other way. Garden of Memories Mausoleum and Cemetery is the final resting place of John "Buddy" Hassett, famous Brooklyn Dodger of the 1930s.

Located at the corner of Pascack and Forest Roads in Township of Washington, Garden of Memories is accessible off the Garden State Parkway with a turnoff onto Pascack Road near Washington Lake. The cemetery grounds offer visitors and family a great sense of peace and solitude when visiting loved ones that's hard to find in today's busy cities.
