    About John Gray & Co Funeral Directors

    John Gray & Co Funeral Directors has been serving the community of Bangor for over 50 years and was established in Central Avenue in 1961. Today, caring for people is still at the heart of what we do at John Gray and Co Funeral Directors and we continue to provide truly professional and caring funeral services to the local community and surrounding areas of Northern Ireland. 

    The teams at our Bangor and Holywood funeral homes provide advice at every stage of the funeral planning process, and will arrange an individual and unique funeral to help you celebrate the life of your loved one. We have our own service venue on-site and are served by Roselawn Cemetery and Crematorium. Want to know what to expect when visiting the funeral home? Take a virtual tour of our Holywood funeral home.

    Our experienced and caring team will advise and support you at every stage of the funeral planning process, with a wide range of funeral options and transparent pricing. With our extensive experience serving the local communities within Bangor and Holywood, we endeavour to cater to every funeral request to ensure that your loved one is treated with the utmost care and respect.

    If you would like to talk to us about planning a funeral, or our Pre-paid Funeral Plans, please come and see us in one of our funeral homes, or if you’d rather we can arrange a home visit. We’re also available 24 hours a day on the phone so if you need anything please don’t hesitate to call your local funeral home.
