Harding died of a heart attack in San Francisco during a lecture tour, the sixth president to die in office. The memorial service was held on August 10, two days after lying in state in Washington, D.C. and the same day as his final funeral service in Marion, Ohio.
The New Jersey service included a funeral march, the hymns "Nearer My God to Thee," "Lead Kindly Light," and "America." National Park Mayor Edwin R. Allen presided. There was an address by Rev. B.W. Luckenbill and the playing of "Taps" concluded the service.
