What G.I. Prasser started as a furniture and undertaking company near South 9th Street and West National Avenue, has evolved into two funeral home locations in Milwaukee. The South Howell Avenue Funeral Home was opened in 1954, while the South 27th Street Funeral Home opened in 1988 and the cremation center adjacent to the Bay View Chapel was constructed in 2014.

The cost of our funeral services and merchandise continue to be among the most reasonable in the Greater Milwaukee Area. While we are not the least expensive, we are certainly not the most expensive either.

We used Prasser-Kleczka for both my mother and fathers services. The attention and care we received both times was excellent.
