  This garden is lovely and serene, but the gates are locked during the winter months. It looks to have a water feature that is only active in the summer.  more »

  I don't know what made it so, but this was the most moving monument, memorial, etc., to which I have been -- with the exception of the Vietnam War Wall in Washington, DC. I was in Atlantic City October 2, 2017. I was the only person in the garden, and I felt like I could feel the spirits of those who were quoted on the granite columns. I am not a religious person , but I felt the need to read a quote, place my hand on the carving, put my head against the pillar -- and I could feel the presence of that person's spirit. After I had read all of the quotes, I went to the center of the garden and "took a knee" and cried. I had such high hopes for our country when Obama was elected. Now I feel like we are in a fast downward spiral. The spirits I felt there were grieving also.

  By far, one of if not the best memorial park that I've ever visited. Very nicely planned, informative, and well maintained
