Faber Field was dedicated on October 11, 1957:

DOREMUS AVE. OVAL DEDICATED TO FABER GLEN ROCK- Official dedication of the Doremus Avenue oval as John J. Faber Memorial Field was attended yesterday by more than 100 residents. An impressive ceremony was opened by William Saalfeld, son-in-law of the late police captain in whose memory the field is named. He spoke of the pride he felt and the pride of the community in the handsome monument and plaque which stood at the entrance to the field. The Rev. M. V. Oggel, pastor of the Community Church, gave a dedicatory prayer after which Mayor Frederick A. Demarest unveiled the plaque, which is at the front and center of a curved wall flanked with shrubbery. Mayor Demarest spoke of the vision that Capt. Faber had for the community, and especially for the youth of Glen Rock. He told of the many things the police officer did for others without seeking personal commendation or recognition. Capt. Faber realized the true values of life, the mayor said. The late police officer will be remembered more for the work he did for youth than for his police career, the mayor added. This is just the way, Captain Faber would want it to be, the mayor concluded. The monument and plaque were given to the community by the Glen Rock Athletic Club, of which Captain Faber was the founder. The shrubbery was given by the Glen Rock Fire Department and Glen Rock Local 110, Patrolmen’s Benevolent Association. Following the dedicatory ceremony, teams from the Athletic Club and the Fire Department played a five-inning softball game.
