Not many businesses can say theyâve been around for over fifty years. Even less can say theyâve been around for sixty years. Well, Bryan-Braker Funeral Home has been around for even longer than that.
It was 1954 when Paul C. Bryan, Jr. purchased the only funeral home in Fairfield and added his name to the door. The Hanson-Bryan was purchased after Paul was able to use his G.I. bill to attend mortuary collage. In 1964, Paul relocated the business from itâs original location and moved it to where it still sits today at 1850 W. Texas Street in Fairfield. It was the same year that he started his own above-ground cemetery, Fairmont Memorial Park on Union Ave in Fairfield.
It was also around this time that he changed the name from Hanson-Bryan Funeral Home to Bryan-Braker Funeral Home. William âBillâ Braker was a key employee to the business and Paul felt having his name on the door as well was the perfect fit. Even though Braker retired in the eighties, his name still remains on our door. He was a foundational part of our company becoming what it is today. We will always be Bryan-Braker.
After studying Business and Finance, Craig Bryan, son of Paul, asked his father if he could work for him for a year to get the understanding of how a business runs before he went out on his own. That one year turned into two and now, 36 years later, Craig has continued in the family business.
Bryan-Braker Funeral Home is more than a funeral home; we are a part of the community. Both Craig and, his wife, Francie enjoy being a part of the community and have done some pretty amazing things over the years.
Craig is a proud Rotarian and has participated in international trips to Mexico where he took ambulances, fire trucks and dental equipment down there. Right now we are working with cities to help remove playgrounds that are no longer ADA compliant and moving the structures to Mexico for the kids to play on.
He also had a big hand in building the skate park in Fairfield, he chartered the Fairfield-Suisun Twilight Rotary Club, is a member of the Elks, Masonic Lodge, both Fairfield and Vacaville Chamberâs of Commerce and was a part of starting the first Wine and Food Jubilee that still supports NorthBay Healthcare to this day.
Bryan-Braker has been a sponsor of the Wine and Food Jubliee for thirty-one years. After being on NorthBayâs board for a few years Craig has taken on the three year commitment of the eventâs Chairman (2018-2021). Along with being the food chair for the Wine and Food Jubliee, Francie is also a Soroptimist of Central Solano County member as well as 100 Women of Solano County and LeTip of Vacaville.
Craigâs daughter, Jenna, decided to follow in her fatherâs footsteps, literally. She too had no intention of working the family business or being involved in the funeral profession. However, after obtaining her degree in Marketing and Communications the opportunity was there and once again was a perfect fit.
Operating a funeral home isnât a job for everyone. Every person who walks through your door is experiencing one of the most vulnerable and confusing times of their lives. It takes a special someone to be able to carry out what the Bryan family and staff are know for - the special balance between professionalism and compassion.
Bryan-Braker Funeral home is proud to say we can help anyone in the community. Whether itâs pre-planned funerals or helping people who have never had a family member pass, we are here to help. Especially when it comes to different cultures. We pride ourselves on having the knowledge and experience of all traditions and cultures; on that same token we are constantly learning and evolving as a company to continue to provide our community with the most professional, respectful and personalized service possible.
As a staple member of Solano County, Bryan-Braker Funeral Home employs nineteen full-time employees and five part-time employees.
