Welcome...
For more than 113 years
Lilleywhite Funeral Service has been
a name synonymous with dignity and pride in the profession of
funeral directing.
Lilleywhite Funeral Service
was founded in 1897 by John Reuben Lilleywhite, a local joiner, from
Kirkhams, Whitefield. Reuben handed down the business to his son
George who re-located the business to our present location on Bury
Old Road, Prestwich in the 1960's. The company is now run by the
fourth generation of the Lilleywhite family, with John and his son
Simon running the business.

its founding family throughout its term, and is still an entirely
