The 3rd Annual Arboretum Tour Recap

A big thank you to all who attended our 3rd Annual Arboretum Tour on Sunday, June 2nd in Farmingdale, New York. This year we saw an impressive turnout spread out over the 3 tours. All of the guests who attended were delighted by Pinelawn’s impressive dedication to the arboreta and monuments throughout the property, which allowed them to understand the great amount of effort the staff puts forth to protect and maintain the grounds. Additionally, guests had the opportunity to learn more about Pinelawn’s rich history, of which they did not know before. Overall, this was an informative experience that left many guests in awe of the trees, flowers, plants, and monuments that comprise the beautiful grounds of Pinelawn Memorial Park And Arboretum.

Guests consisted of memorial property owners, families of people interred in Pinelawn’s memorial property, as well as guests who had heard about the event from advertisements and events. Here are some of the feedback we heard from our guests at this year’s event:

“I just want to let you know I really enjoyed the tour this AM. It was so informable. So happy the sun was out and we had no rain. Learned so much which I had no idea of. Looking forward to Aug 2 to seeing the lady bugs.” – Linda Mendlinger

“Thank you so much for being on top of this.  I had a splendid time and look forward to attending all of your events.  I feel closer to my wife.  My son Sam, who attended with me today, was impressed.” – Ronald Holik
