Lonergan Funeral Directors have returned to serve the people of Carrickmacross, South Monaghan and beyond. Padraig Lonergan, who was in the Undertaking business for over twenty years, has re-established the business with his wife, Catriona - Monaghan's newest Funeral Director.
Paddy Lonergan purchased The Shirley Arms Hotel in 1930 and founded his Undertaking business. All aspects of the business flourished, not least the Undertaking, and in time Paddy's sons Oliver and Noel joined him in the family business.
