About John Krtil Funeral Home-Yorkville Funeral Service

John Krtil Funeral Home-Yorkville Funeral Service is an independently owned funeral home located in New York City, which means families work directly with the owner rather than a corporate entity. As a full-service provider, they handle both cremation and traditional burial arrangements. Direct cremation starts at $2,185 and traditional burial starts at $2,550, which are notably competitive prices for the New York City market where costs tend to run significantly higher. The home holds a 4.2-star rating on Google, though with only 13 reviews, that score reflects a limited sample size and may not capture the full range of family experiences.
