The oldest Jewish family funeral home serving the Jewish community of greater New Haven with dignity since 1881. In 1881 Danny Weller began serving the Jews in New Haven as the first Jewish Funeral Director in the State of Connecticut and perhaps one of the first in the country. It was a time of an influx of large numbers of Eastern European Jews who were fleeing from the Russian pogroms.
Danny had a horse and buggy, worked out of his home, and was a legend in his day. On the occasion of Danny's death in 1923, his son Harry Weller assumed the mantle of responsibility from a converted residence at 425 George Street. Between 1923 to 1978, Weller's served the community from 425 George Street.

The second you walk in the door you are treated with respect, condolence, and understanding, we used their service for my mother, and now with sorrow, my brother. They are very proffesional and the last thing you want on your mind when you lose a loved one is not knowing how they will be treated up until burial. I have profound trust and respect for their staff.
Their servies goes above and beyond, and they were very professional and kind to us.
