Richardson-Gaffey Funeral Home

Richardson-Gaffey Funeral Home is a combination of the Ernest A. Richardson Funeral Home (est. 1955) and the Edward J. Gaffey & Sons Funeral Home (est. 1969). Our home, located on First Parish Road, has transformed from a simple 1890s farmhouse with the town post office in the front room to a warm and inviting building, including a spacious chapel for large services and a smaller room for more intimate gatherings.

All of our services are designed to help our client families through one of the most personal and challenging stages of life. We understand losing a loved one is an emotional and difficult experience, and we are committed to helping our client families with compassionate, professional and personal service.

Our commitment to our community has remained unchanged, yet our funeral home has always responded to the changing needs of the community. We’re proud to be a member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers. Dignity Memorial providers offer exclusive benefits, including National Transferability of Prearranged Services, the Bereavement Travel Program, the 24-Hour Compassion Helpline® and access to an acclaimed grief management library. The Dignity Memorial brand is your assurance of quality, value, caring service and customer satisfaction.

Our funeral directors Sara Collins and Mike McCormack are dedicated to our beautiful community and all of the families we serve. Mike was born and raised in Rockland, where he lives with his wife and Sara is from Rhode Island and moved to Scituate with her husband and two children in 2014.
