Above are many of the hardest working people in the New Jersey State Funeral Directors Association. Just seconds after the Ribbon Cutting Exhibit Opening Wine and Cheese Party. We all slept well after enjoying the company of new and old friends after this clever event. Which was held on Monday evening from 5:30 until 7:30.

NJSFDA choose Trump's Taj Mahal and oceanfront Casino & Resort in Atlantic City New Jersey, to the extreme upper left is the base of their impressive fifty story hotel tower, the spacious exhibit hall entrance is to the right. The Staff at the Hotel Treated me like family.

Most of us woke up to a similar spectacular view of the Ocean (water temp. 72f) a closer look at the edge of the sand closest to the building is Atlantic City's famous Boardwalk, room cost only $110. per day.
