Memorial Garden

History

The Memorial Garden began many years ago at the Pfeiffer’s home in Sea Isle City.  In 1996, existing memorial pavers and the statue of Neptune were installed in the Sea Isle City Historical Museum`s Memorial Garden at 4208 Landis Ave. A formal dedication of the garden took place on July 8, 2001. Also in 2001, the Memorial Garden received the coveted Sea Isle City Beautification Award. On August 4, 2012, the garden was dedicated at its new museum home at 4800 Central Ave. Today, the project is complete.  The garden is updated with new landscaping in the spring and there are two diamondback turtle protection stations maintained by Steve and Susan Ahern.  An active water feature which represents the flow of Sea Isle’s history from the past, to the present, and on into the future.
On April 27, 2016, the enhanced Memorial Garden was formally dedicated to our past president, Mike Stafford, and his late wife, Marie, both of whom did so much to nurture and grow the Historical Museum to what it is today.
