Captured Moment: The Funeral Home

YS Gold 

This week’s captured moment takes us to the outskirts of Boro Park, where a funeral home has stood since the 1940’s—and maybe earlier. It continued to serve as such until very recently, and it has now been vacated. 

Looking closely at the sign outside the building, we can make out the words “Ceraso and Sons Funeral Directors.” 

Can any of our readers pinpoint the location?

Answer to last week’s captured moment: 

The industrial building on 38th Street near 13th Avenue has served as the home of Talmud Torah Ohel Yochanan-Rachmastrivka—one of Boro Park’s fastest-growing chadorim—for a number of years.
