Nothing about a death in Harrison takes place in Harrison. The town is roughly a square mile of houses, storefronts and redevelopment blocks with no hospital inside it and no burial ground inside it, so the worst week a family will have pulls them outward in three separate directions, each one over a different bridge or county line. The death itself is most often across the Passaic — at University Hospital, 150 Bergen Street in Newark, a Level I trauma centre and the hospital Rutgers New Jersey Medical School teaches in, or at Newark Beth Israel Medical Center over on Lyons Avenue — or north at Clara Maass Medical Center in Belleville, or south in Harrison's own county at Jersey City Medical Center on Grand Street. Because 07029 sits in Hudson County while most of those buildings sit in Essex, even the administrative trail runs at an angle to where the family lives. Visitors are then received a mile north on Belgrove Drive in Kearny, where Armitage & Wiggins Funeral Home and Thiele-Reid Family Funeral Home stand almost opposite one another, or across the Jackson Street Bridge in Newark's Ironbound, whose Portuguese-language homes serve a large share of this town's Portuguese, Brazilian, Ecuadorian and Peruvian households. Burial, more often than any single alternative, is at Holy Cross Cemetery in North Arlington — the Archdiocese of Newark's principal ground — reached by driving north up Ridge Road, which is the same road Flowers Bychuck works from at number 469 in Lyndhurst. All of which produces one practical instruction for a sender, and it is the instruction most people get wrong: the person you are thinking of lives in Harrison, but the address you need almost certainly is not in Harrison. Find out the chapel before you find out anything else.
The two chapels a mile above the Harrison line, nearly opposite each other on Belgrove Drive, and the place a great many of this town's families receive visitors. Lee's Florist on Kearny Avenue is closer to both than anything else in the network and is the only shop that reaches them without a Passaic crossing on the way.
Newark's Ironbound faces Harrison across the river, and its Portuguese-language funeral homes carry much of the town's Portuguese, Brazilian, Ecuadorian and Peruvian community through this week. Flowers Byinternational on Lafayette Street and Madonna's Garden on Raymond Boulevard both work a few minutes from that circuit.
The Archdiocese of Newark's principal burial ground and the commonest end point for a Harrison funeral, approached northward up Ridge Road through Kearny and North Arlington. Its size is the reason a graveside delivery without a confirmed hour is a genuine gamble; hand the piece to the director instead and let it travel with the procession.
The nearest burial ground to this town that does not require crossing a river, close enough to the Belgrove Drive chapels that a cortege is there within minutes of leaving. Deliveries work against a fixed committal hour, but the chapel remains the safer address, because somebody there is expecting a van and there is a door to knock on.
Two historic Newark grounds within the radius, on Central Avenue and on Broadway, with Holy Sepulchre further out in East Orange. All three take a Harrison family over a bridge and into Essex County, and all three are reachable inside the same-day window by the Belleville, Bloomfield and Nutley shops listed on this page.
150 Bergen Street and Lyons Avenue: the two Newark buildings a Harrison family is most likely to be sitting in when the call comes. Anything sent after a death should go to the chapel or the apartment, not here. Flowers intended for a unit go to the team by name, unscented, and belong on a counter rather than in a room.
The other two hospitals a short drive from 07029 — one north over the Belleville Turnpike, one south in the county Harrison actually belongs to. Rosepalace Florist NJ and Alexisnicoles both stand on Franklin Avenue minutes from the first, and Entenmann's Florist on Kennedy Boulevard is closest to the second.
Almost nobody sends this one and every family remembers it. A plant to a second floor on Bergen Street or Cleveland Avenue, or to one of the towers near the PATH station, three weeks on. Address it to the relative who has been handling the arrangements rather than to the person who has just been widowed, and ask for a telephone call ahead of the knock.
