The Choir of the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception gave an absolutely beautiful Marian concert tonight at St. Mary of Mount Carmel Parish in Hammonton. Their voices soared to the rafters, and they were, in a word, extraordinary.

Today we celebrate the funeral homes, directors and morticians who place their trust in us, recommend us to families, and work with us to provide everlasting services to those in need. Thank you all!

It's our 165th Anniversary! On February 22, 1860, the Oak Grove Cemetery Association was officially incorporated. Since then, it has been our privilege to welcome and care for more than 4,000 residents of all faiths, ethnicities and identities.

We have big plans throughout the year, so stay tuned!
