Thank you for providing the location.  I was wondering where the park was located.

From the Bergen County Historical Society email newsletter:

Memorial Day Observed
The Bergen County Historical Society laid a wreath at the grave of General Enoch Poor in the First Dutch Reformed Churchyard in Hackensack to honor those who have served in the armed forces of the United States in all wars and those who presently stand in harm's way in defense of Liberty. The handsewn New Constellation Flag was displayed and a tour of the old cemetery followed the ceremony.
