Hoffmann Meyers Givnish Funeral Home

Description

McGoldrick Funeral Home was originally established around 1900 in rented rooms in the Foy Building on Old York Road by Joseph J. McGoldrick, who then constructed the first funeral home in that area built for that purpose at 713 West Avenue and Johnson Street. In 1926, the business was moved to a facility at Summit and Cedar Street. Mr. McGoldrick owned and operated the funeral home until his death in 1933, at which time, his daughter, Anne took over the management of the firm and became a licensed funeral director in 1936. In 1949, her brother, also named Joseph J. McGoldrick, joined his sister in the operation, and in 1956 they moved the funeral home to its current location at 507 West Avenue. Joseph became the sole proprietor upon his mother’s death in 1959. In 1975, the grandson of the founder, Thomas M. McGoldrick joined the firm, and when his father died in 2013, he became the sole proprietor. Tom McGoldrick was one of seven children of parents Joseph J. and Delores McGoldrick, but was the only one that joined his father in the business. With Tom considering retirement, the Walter Meyers family of funeral directors were contacted. After a long interview with Tom and assuring him we would continue the McGoldrick family of service to his families, Tom decided to transfer the McGoldrick funeral home into the care of the Meyers Family of Funeral Directors. Until Tom does decide to fully retire he will remain as the supervisor of the Joseph J. McGoldrick Funeral Home Inc. During this transition we will assist Tom in the many aspects of running the funeral home.
