Services
Fullerton Funeral Home was founded in 1903 by Daniel J. Fullerton in Canarsie, Brooklyn, NY. Mr. Fullerton originally ran a dry goods store, with caskets being one of the items sold. This led him into the funeral business and the store was converted into a funeral home.
With the influx of families moving to Long Island from Brooklyn, his son, James E. Fullerton, opened the Baldwin branch on Merrick Road, a few doors from St. Christopher's Church, in 1937.The funeral home was already well known to many new residents moving to Baldwin from Brooklyn.

Thank you to your team for all your kindness and support you gave all of us during dad's funeral. You were very helpful and patient as we made decisions-we really appreciate that. The visit to the home for the planning, the wake and the services went so well. Our Dad was a good guy who lived a full life.
Funerals fill an important role for those mourning the loss of a loved one. By providing surviving family members and friends a caring, supportive environment in which to share thoughts and feelings about death, funerals are the first step in the healing process. It is possible to have a full funeral service even for those choosing cremation.
Thinking about your own funeral leaves most people feeling a little uneasy, but more adults are finding that planning their own service offers great emotional and even financial security for them and their families. With preplanning, families find comfort in knowing that the funeral reflects what their loved one wanted.
At some point in our lives, most of us will make or assist in making funeral arrangements. This can mean making many decisions at a very difficult and emotional time. We are here to offer help and guidance during one of life's most difficult times, but there are things you can do to help yourself. Be an informed consumer.

My family chose Fullerton to have a wake for my mother as she recently passed away. They were pretty helpful to us but there were two things I did not like so I have to give it four stars and not five.
My first issue was the Sunday after she passed away we showed up to the funeral home and no one was around to help us. We thought they were open for business until 4 PM but maybe that was our fault and we misunderstood things. I was not happy to put off the arrangements for one more day but when my sister spoke to the funeral director over

Our father passed on last week. We were unfortunately unprepared as to where we would hold the wake. Like most people, we went to the closest funeral home to us, geographically. The cost was a shock and not only that, we felt that the funeral director was using sales techniques similar to a car salesman.
Fortunately, we walked out and went home to think before we wrote a large check. My mother called St. Francis hospital and asked for a recommendation. They suggested Fullerton Funeral Home in Baldwin NY. We met with Matt Fritz and were impressed by how kind, honest and helpful he was.

Wonderful family and friends have maintained this place for many years. Both mom and my brother Ken had their wakes here, and both were as comforting as could be. This was , geographically speaking, ground zero in Ken's life.
