Families who come to us know that years from now, they will have a deep peace-of-mind because in coming to us, they’ve done their best to honor their loved one. Our History Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home & Cremation Center, is located in Fort Lauderdale at 4061 North Federal Highway. From this central location we are able to serve the families of Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, and many other locales throughout the area. Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center has provided quality funeral and cremation care for families for more than 50 years. Founded by Funeral Director R. Jay Kraeer, in 1952, we have given families a variety of settings and options for a meaningful land affordable service through the years. In 2007, two highly respected funeral providers consolidated under one roof in a newly renovated building that reflects the sophisticated style that Fort Lauderdale residents expect. Our trained staff is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Unlike the usual impersonal service that is commonplace in South Florida, Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center is most unusual in that we have a funeral director answer the phone no matter what the time of day or day of week. When you need us most, we’re there for you. Our staff is involved from the very beginning and on through the entire personalized service we provide. We operate our own crematory, plus offer the unique no-flame cremation process, known as Calcination.
