About us...
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. Lilleywhite Funeral Service has
become Prestwich’s longest established firm of Funeral Directors, and
the only remaining firm to still be owned and run by its founding family
throughout its term, and is still an entirely independent firm of family
funeral directors.
No matter how
simple or elaborate your wishes, by choosing Lilleywhite Funeral Service
