Garrett And Marshall Jacobs Deliver Personalized Service at The Gardens Of Boca Raton Cemetery And Boca Raton Funeral Home
It’s never easy to deal with the loss of a loved one. That’s why brothers Garrett and Marshall Jacobs provide compassionate, personalized care to families making final arrangements. Together with the Maschler family, Garrett, LFD, owns The Gardens of Boca Raton, an all-faith above-ground cemetery located on 21 pristine acres in western Boca Raton.
“Because we are family-owned and operated, you receive personalized treatment from start to finish,” says Garrett, who oversees daily operations at the funeral home as CEO. “When you call the funeral home, you get right to me, and, if you call the cemetery, my brother Marshall is on-property to serve you and answer any questions.”
A graduate of Lynn University’s Mortuary Science Program, Garrett has served the Boca Raton community since 1995, performing hundreds of funerals a year. He owned and operated Boca Raton Funeral Home for almost 20 years and purchased The Gardens in January 2016.
Today, Garrett helps families make pre-need arrangements and provides counseling and consolation after a loss. He is also actively involved in timely issues, such as the recent increase in opioid-related deaths.
“I give young people tours of the mausoleum to help deter early senseless deaths,” he says. “No one can stop this alone, but, together, we can make a difference.”
Marshall works closely with his brother, supervising the cemetery and day-to-day matters as chief operations officer.
“Our cemetery is indoors and air conditioned, making for a much more convenient visit for friends and family members who rely on walkers and wheelchairs,” he says. “With the advances in technology, distant family members and friends will soon be able to view services via online streaming through cameras placed within our sanctuary.”
The Gardens of Boca Raton is in the final stages of a $3.5 million expansion due to be completed this spring. The addition will include a two-level sanctuary that will seat 400 people for services and a large banquet facility for post-service gatherings.
As Marshall says, “We are a rare upscale property in the center of town that offers a special level of service to families before or after a loved one has passed.”
The Gardens of Boca Raton is located at 4103 N. Military Trail, Boca Raton. For more information, call 561-989-9190 or visit thegardens.com.
