Stoecklein, Jr., chairman and CEO of CMS Mid-Atlantic, Inc., the company that provides management services to Laurel Grove Cemetery.&nbsp;&nbsp; "The idea that we opened the chapel for this occasion and provided such a meaningful service to help those who grieve was appreciated by all.&nbsp;&nbsp;When those in attendance lit their candles and each mentioned the names of the loved ones they were remembering and holding vigil for, there was not a dry eye in the chapel. One mother, son and daughter held six candles for family members buried at Laurel Grove," Stoecklein added.&nbsp;</FONT></P> 10 application/xml false Death dying Laurel Grove Cemetery New Jersey Cemetery New York Cemetery Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 WebMaster false true false false true 117783 blog blogsite/CMSMidAtlantic/web
