With a history that dates back to the 1950s, Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center provides burial, cremation and cemetery services to Fort Lauderdale, Oakland Park and Wilton Manors in Florida.

Modern funeral home services

Lobby at Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center Our North Federal Highway funeral home has a contemporary, beach atmosphere. We are a non-denominational, multicultural funeral home representing all traditions, with years of experience caring for people from all walks of life. We operate our own crematory, which offers traditional cremation or no-flame cremation, known as calcination.

The staff at Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center understands that losing a loved one is a difficult experience, and we are committed to compassionate, professional care. When we sit down to plan a funeral, we have a simple goal: to create a fitting, memorable and affordable service. Together, we explore the variety of options as well as creative ideas.

Personal services that celebrate life

Whether you seek a direct cremation, traditional funeral with a graveside service or a modern celebration of life with a band, food and a send-off that reflects the personality and passions of yourself or your loved one, we go the extra mile to make it happen. And we do so with a level of care and compassion that our families trust.

Want a dove release? An ice cream social? Personalized golf balls as mementos? A memorial service on the beach? Whatever you need, we carefully plan a celebration of life that is as unique as the life it honors.

History

Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center represents a tradition of over 100 years of service from 2 landmark families who merged their businesses to create a funeral care legacy in southeast Florida, serving residents and founding city pioneers. Kraeer Funeral Home began with R. Jay Kraeer and his wife, Lorraine, in 1952 in Pompano Beach and eventually grew to 8 locations. The Fort Lauderdale funeral home and crematory location merged in 2007 with Fairchild Funeral Home, the oldest funeral home in Fort Lauderdale and Broward County. Today, Kraeer-Fairchild Funeral Home and Cremation Center is a member of the Dignity Memorial®network, bringing unmatched services to the Fort Lauderdale community.
