About Klaehn, Fahl & Melton Funeral Home
Klaehn, Fahl & Melton Funeral Home is a full-service funeral home in Fort Wayne, Indiana, operating as part of Service Corporation International (SCI), the largest corporate funeral home chain in North America — families who prefer an independently or locally owned funeral home may want to keep that in mind. No pricing data was available for this location, so it's worth contacting them directly to request a General Price List, which funeral homes are legally required to provide. On Google, the funeral home holds a 5.0-star rating across 29 reviews, a strong score though based on a relatively modest number of responses. Customers consistently highlight the warmth and attentiveness of individual staff members — directors Autumn Petrowske and Guy Dupuis are mentioned by name — with reviewers noting flexibility around cultural and religious needs, careful attention to detail, and a genuine effort to ease the burden on families during a difficult time.

10 months agoKindness, compassion, courtesy and respect for my family’s loss laced every interaction with Autumn through the planning of my brother’s service. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Klaehn, Fahl & Melton to guide folks through their most difficult times.

3 years agoI am very pleased with Klaehn Fahl & Melton for the way they met our request on how the service was to be conducted. Our mother was very well presented and gave the family much comfort. The handling of arrangements and filing of paperwork by staff helped ease tension.
