How do I go about getting a tree, plaque or bench memorial in someone's name?

Memorial Trees

Please contact Mr. Tom Everett, Supervisor/Parks, by calling 609-775-7314 during normal business hours (Monday-Friday from 8AM-4PM).  Plaques will be installed at locations of existing trees only. 

Memorial Bench

Please contact Mr. Tom Everett, Supervisor/Parks, by calling 609-775-7314 during normal business hours (Monday-Friday from 8AM-4PM).  Plaques will be installed at locations of existing trees only.  

Plaques for Trees / Benches

Trees: 4 inches by 6 inches
Benches: 3 inches by 6 inches

The donor must provide the plaque.  Plaques can be ordered from any place that makes monuments at the donor's expense.  Albert N. Thiel on Greenwood Avenue and Abbey Rose on Route 130 are examples of twp places within Hamilton Township that makes plaques.  

Note: Plaques are typically installed between April and December so there is no damage to the tree roots.  

Completion of these requests are weather dependent. Memorials cannot be placed when the ground is frozen.
