Being involved in our community is important to us. Check out all our upcoming events below!
The Vander Plaat Memorial Home of Paramus has been providing funeral service to the Bergen County, New Jersey community since 1927. Founded on the principles that funeral service is a commitment to serving the community, the strong dedication to these principles continue today. The ongoing dedication is evident in both the funeral services provided by our funeral home and the commitment to giving back to the community. When founder, Henry W. Vander Plaat, Sr. came to Paramus to establish his funeral home he saw the need to be involved in the community in which he lived and worked. Henry Sr. was very involved in many community and civic organizations; he was proactive in organizing the first Post Office in Paramus and in establishing the Paramus Volunteer Ambulance Corp. The legacy continues today as our funeral home provides and assists in community events.

Light of Remembrance Social Distancing and Mask Policy
Oct 10, 2021 02:30 PM to Oct 10, 2021 04:00 PMThe Vander Plaat Memorial Home understands that currently many have concerns with large gatherings during these uncertain times. We also feel that gathering as a community to remember loves lost is vital to the healing process, to speak our loved one's names and remember.
With the confines of the sanctuary, social distancing will be impossible. Masks will be at the discretion of each guest. We ask that you do what is most comfortable to you. If that means joining us in person, we welcome you. If that means joining us via livestream, we will hold your loved one up in our prayers. The link for the webcast will be posted shortly.
