Marking a Special Memorial Day

It’s only fitting that Burt Arnold of Freedom Drive became our first homeowner from our Villas extension project to switch to natural gas. Burt is a proud veteran of World War II, the Korean War and Vietnam as well. The former Marine proudly served our country for 40 years and in Burt’s own words “I came home safe and sound and God Bless America!”


Burt and his wife, Rita, who have been married for 54 years took the advice of their sons (“They’re plumbers,” explained dad!) and became one of the first applicants on their block to sign up for natural gas. With their gas line installed and their meter now activated, Burt and Rita are officially our first new customer from this main extension project.


Asked why he wanted to switch fuels, Burt explained that he "felt it was quite a bit more economical than propane." As to the conversion process, he commented “It was a pleasure to work with Heather McCurdy. The installation job was just outstanding. It was clean and efficient and the crew did a great job.”


According to Burt, “I’m recommending to anybody who has any sense to switch to natural gas.”

Today marks a great milestone for South Jersey Gas!

Our first homeowner to receive natural gas service as part of this extension project is Mr. Burt Arnold of Freedom Drive. Thank you, Mr. Arnold, and welcome to the South Jersey Gas family of customers. His neighbors on Freedom Drive will also see their gas lines installed this week!

In other news, you’ll see that our main installation along Bayshore Road is progressing quite well. This week you should see some work around the area in front of the library.

Happy Memorial Day to all!
