Decades of funeral service in Lynn

With a longstanding history in Lynn spanning nine decades, the Cuffe family has provided compassionate, personalized funeral service to Massachusetts families since 1934. That year, Walter A. Cuffe, Sr., opened his first funeral home on Johnson Street in Lynn, later merging with one of the oldest funeral homes in the area, McGinn Funeral Home on Maple Street, in 1976.

Over the next 15 years, the Cuffe-McGinn funeral home underwent various expansions, making it one of the largest and most complete facilities in the Massachusetts North Shore. Today, Walter A. Cuffe, Jr., carries on the family’s long-established tradition of providing the very best service to families in Lynn and surrounding communities.

History

Front exterior at Cuffe-McGinn Funeral HomeThe late Walter a. Cuffe, Sr., and his son, the late Walter A. Cuffe, Jr., provided service to their community for almost six decades.
The elder Cuffe first established his home on Johnson Street in Lynn in 1934 and then, in 1976, merged his home with the McGinn Funeral Home located at 157 Maple Street.

The McGinn home itself was one of the oldest in Lynn, having been founded by Lawrence G. and William E. McGinn.
The Cuffe-McGinn Funeral Home on Maple Street was expanded in 1981 and again enlarged in 1992, making it one of the largest and most complete facilities on the Massachusetts North Shore.

The Funeral Home today is a proud member of the Dignity Memorial family, the largest funeral provider, which brings many benefits to the families we are privileged to serve.
