About Us
Our funeral home in Perth is located at 15 Gore Street West. We are proud to be an independent family funeral home, in our fourth generation of family service. We serve the communities of Perth, Smiths Falls, Lanark and surrounding communities. Our funeral home in Perth is the third oldest continually operated facility in Ontario, founded in 1836. The Blair family involvement began in the early 1900’s when Alex Blair purchased a share from David Hogg and went into partnership with the Thompson family. Shortly thereafter, he purchased the remaining portion of the business. The funeral home has evolved many times over the years beginning as a part of the furniture store. In 1939 the current chapel was constructed with additions coming in the 70’s and 80’s. In 2002 a milestone occurred with the construction of a new home furnishings facility on Highway 7 at the eastern end of Perth. The former furniture store was extensively reconstructed with the addition of new visitation rooms, lobby area and large family reception centre. The creation of a new reception facility now allows families to have post funeral receptions or meals for small or large groups while in our care.
