Our Heritage

 The story of Lahaie & Sullivan Cornwall Funeral Homes began more than 42 years ago in 1964 with the opening of a facility at 20 Seventh Street West, which is now known as the West Branch.

 The Seventh Street facility was the first, and still remains today, the only funeral home designed and built specifically for the unique needs of funeral services. The comfortable, elegant interiors, which are continually updated, provide a peaceful, private and dignified environment.

 So rapid was their growth that Lahaie & Sullivan Cornwall Funeral Homes expanded to East Cornwall acquiring the former Bonneville Funeral Home at 614 First Street East. The building was completely renovated in 1969.

 The East Branch has since expanded beyond the original building, adding a large memorial chapel, a popular reception centre and expanded parking facilities to meet the specific needs of all the families served.

 Today, Lahaie & Sullivan is still Canadian, independently owned by its original founders, John and Claudette Lahaie and Ray Sullivan, who became a partner in 1968. It is one of the most successful long-term business partnerships in Cornwall. Ray Sullivan describes the professional relationship between the owners as "a marriage that has withstood the test of time". He attributes success in business to this particular combination of personalities coupled with the overwhelming support from families that have placed their confidence in the firm in their time of need.

  Lahaie & Sullivan continue to be the leading funeral service in the area, and we thank you. We appreciate your support and friendship and we will continue to personalize our services to each family's preference. The choice is always yours at both of our locations.
