About
Founded in 1904 by John J. Hinnegan, this Chatham funeral home has operated continuously for well over a century, moving in 1932 to its current location at 156 William St. S. -- the former estate home of Duncan MacLachlan. Thomas E. Peseski purchased the business in December 1986 after 24 years working there, and his sons joined the firm in the years that followed, taking over ownership in 2009. Now known as Hinnegan-Peseski Funeral Home, the firm is licensed by the Bereavement Authority of Ontario (Licence #085) and offers traditional burial services, cremation, and aquamation, along with online and in-person pre-arrangement planning. The funeral home also provides grief resources, obituary and eulogy support, and legal-advice referrals for grieving families. Funeral directors are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to assist families at any time of need.
