On Friday, July 7, 2023, we mounted the commemorative plaques, funded by the Friends of the Library, on the two benches dedicated “To Two Gentlemen Named ‘George’”, that is the late George M. Carter and George Materon. The benches, provided by the Borough of Oradell Environmental Committee from recycled plastic, were dedicated in a ceremony on Saturday, August 20, 2022, and sit near the front entrance to the Library.

Two dark green outdoor benches sit side by side against a red brick wall outside the Oradell Public Library. Each bench has a small dedication plaque centered on the top backrest. The benches rest on a concrete walkway, with a window on the left and visible utility pipes on the wall behind them. A metal dedication plaque mounted on a green bench. It reads, “To Two Gentlemen named ‘George’ George M. Carter and George Materon.”
