Services
Founded in 1930 by John T. and Helen M. Donohue, Donohue Funeral Home is the oldest family-owned and operated funeral establishment in London, Ontario. Relocated to its present location on the southeast corner of Waterloo Street and King Street in 1952, the family's vision was to grow in order to accommodate the community's families and their individual needs.
We understand how difficult it is to lose a loved one. Our compassionate and caring team work hard each and every day to make sure that the members of our community and beyond are taken care of during such a difficult time. For advice on what to do when a loved one is dying, making funeral arrangements, pre-arranging your own funeral, or anything else, please feel free to contact us, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
We pride ourselves on the functionality and appearance of our facilities. We are constantly updating and improving our premises and equipment to keep our facility within the highest of professional standards. Whether it is our Chapel, Visitation Rooms, Coffee Lounge, or Reception Facilities, the flexibility of our layout allows us to accommodate a broad range of services.
No matter if a death is sudden, or if it something that was a long time coming, the loss of a loved one makes us feel emotional and overwhelmed. No amount of preparation can fully prepare you for the loss of a loved one. When you are in a heightened emotional state, even the most basic decisions can seem staggering.

This is an amazing business. I have been here for my father, grandfather and cousin's funerals, and I don't know how they could improve. They truly care about their clients and do not push and decisions or sales when you go to consult with them. The service they provide is unparalleled. They will do anything legally possible to make your time of need stress free for you. Many other family members have agreed they would like their funeral there when it's their time. Perhaps a loyalty card is in order! haha

What a lovely funeral home and a huge thank you to Marti and the rest of the staff for all the help and making my Dad's funeral the best it could be. Losing my Dad is the hardest thing and with COVID it made things harder when not as many people showed up and not being able to hug loved ones and dear friends that we haven't seen for some time. Thank you all at John T. Donohue Funeral home. Sincerely, Annie (Mrakich) Gray.

I knew that my mom would be treated with dignity and respect and that I could trust each one of them.

Unbelievable professionalism and compassion. I called this funeral home the day my mom passed away. They saw my dad, my brothers and I on the same day. Our funeral representative guided us through all of the decisions we needed to make to prepare for the visitation two days later and the funeral three days later, all in one afternoon. Amazing. The visitation, funeral mass and burial went smoothly. It was a beautiful process. Our funeral representative was so very thoughtful. She remembered little details and touches I had forgotten, such as collecting the cards that came with the flowers, so we

During a tough time Donahue funeral home was their for myself and our family.
Everything was handled from the moment I called and I felt a trust from the beginning.
To anyone dealing with loved ones passing this is the home you need to get in touch with. The men and women at Donahue made a hard time comforting and we can't thank them enough
I never wanted to make a call to a funeral home in my life but reality struck and my father passed. I am glad I called Donahue
