Cate & Johnson Funeral Home

Cate & Johnson Funeral Home has been a trusted pillar of the Manchester, New Hampshire community for close to 100 years. Originally an independent, family-run funeral home, it built a reputation for compassionate, personalized care for families during their most difficult times. In October 2017, Cate & Johnson was acquired by Phaneuf Funeral Homes & Crematorium, one of the oldest family-owned funeral homes in New Hampshire. This partnership ensured that all existing pre-arranged services with Cate & Johnson would be honored seamlessly, while allowing the legacy of dedicated service to continue under the Phaneuf umbrella.

Located at 573 Pine Street in Manchester, Cate & Johnson Funeral Home has long served as a place where families gather to honor and remember loved ones. The funeral service is an important point of closure, providing space for sharing memories, receiving condolences, and saying farewell. With expertise gained over decades, the team curates meaningful ceremonies that help mourners begin their journey through grief together.

As part of the Phaneuf network, clients now benefit from expanded resources while still experiencing the personalized attention that defined Cate & Johnson. Phaneuf Funeral Homes & Crematorium operates multiple locations, including a full-service facility at 243 Hanover Street in Manchester. That location offers a wheelchair accessible entrance, parking lot, restroom, and seating, ensuring all guests can participate comfortably. The facility features an onsite chapel, on-site parking, and comprehensive service options including burial and cremation services.
