About

Kane-Jerrett Funeral Homes – North York Chapel has served families in North York and surrounding areas since its founding in the mid-1930s by Jack Jerrett. As a member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery providers, we are devoted to exceeding expectations and providing a superior standard of service.

Our welcoming funeral home

At Kane-Jerrett Funeral Homes – North York Chapel, our modern, spacious facility offers a peaceful and comforting environment while providing families with exceptional service. Our staff is fluent in Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean, Italian, Spanish, Bulgarian, Russian and Vietnamese.

Visitation rooms are named after North York landmarks, such as Willowdale, Lansing and Sheppard. Our reception lounge has new furnishings, and we are happy to offer catered receptions, so you can spend time with family and friends over snacks or a meal to share memories and comfort.

Personalized funerals

Our mission at Kane-Jerrett Funeral Homes is to help families create personalized funerals and memorials. This approach keeps us open to traditional religious rites as well as contemporary gatherings that deeply reflect a person's life. That means that whether you want a basic cremation with ashes scattered in a personally meaningful place, a funeral in our cozy chapel with cemetery burial nearby, or a modern celebration of life with live music, favorite foods and a send-off that expresses the passions of yourself or your loved one, we deliver.

Cremation services

Not everyone knows that there are many cremation options. If you are interested in cremation, the funeral home team can explain the process and different options. From a direct cremation without a memorial service or a witness cremation to a full funeral service before or after the cremation and more, we help you understand this increasingly common choice—and handle all of the cremation arrangements.

Please contact us if you need immediate assistance, wish to visit us or if you would like more information about our products and services.

History

In 1934, Jack Jerrett acquired Bennet Funeral Home at 4661 Yonge St. in North York, then known as Willowdale. He grew the business, and in the fall of 1993 opened the new North York Chapel at 6191 Yonge St. Over the past 8 decades, Kane-Jerrett Funeral Homes has maintained a commitment to a high standard of service. Throughout our history, we have continued to lead and innovate while staying true to the values of our founder. Today, everyone at Kane-Jerrett Funeral Homes is proud to uphold this heritage and commitment to North York and surrounding Toronto communities.
