Hamilton Harron Funeral Home dates back to 1912. The Hamilton brothers, George and Mark, joined a small but growing group of businesses on Fraser Street that were attracted to the area because of the presence of Mountain View Cemetery. Their neighbours on Cemetery Road (now “Fraser Street”) were the monument companies who would display their creations along the roadside for passing streetcar passengers to see.
In the early 1990s, Hamilton’s merged with the Harron Brothers to become Hamilton Harron, and their time-honoured tradition of caring for families continues on Fraser Street.
