We extend our heartfelt condolences to the family and friends of Jim O’Brien, who passed away peacefully on March 27, 2026, surrounded by loved ones in the home he so generously shared with others. A devoted father, grandfather, and proud son of Irish immigrants, Jim lived a life rooted in faith, family, and service. Alongside his beloved late wife, Cattie, he created a home filled with warmth, compassion, and unwavering support for all who entered.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Saturday, June 20th at Immaculate Conception Church, 520 Oakwood Ave, East Aurora, NY, with visitation beginning at 10:00 AM and the service at 11:00 AM.

The funeral home staff honor Jim’s legacy of kindness, strength, and selflessness, and we are privileged to have served his family during this time.

Meals have a special way of bringing people together—especially during times of loss. A shared meal can offer comfort, connection, and a space to reflect on cherished memories.

Many families don’t realize that funeral homes can also provide catering services, making it easier to plan a meaningful reception without added stress. From light refreshments to full meals, these gatherings can be personalized to honor your loved one’s life, traditions, and favorite flavors.

After the loss of a loved one, there are many details to manage—and death certificates are an important part of that process. This official document is often needed to handle legal matters like insurance, banking, and estate arrangements.

When you work with our funeral home, we help guide you through obtaining death certificates and handle the process for you. Please note, we only have access for up to 6 months—after that, copies must be requested through the municipality where your loved one passed.
