About Us
Since 1959, John Sweeney & Sons Funeral Directors has been a cornerstone of compassionate funeral care in Arklow and the surrounding areas. Founded by John Sweeney, our family-run business has upheld a tradition of dignity, reverence, and respect for over six decades.




As proud members of the Irish Association of Funeral Directors (I.A.F.D.) and the British Institute of Embalmers, we adhere to the highest professional standards. Our qualified staff are dedicated to providing personalised and compassionate services, ensuring that every family's needs and wishes are met with care and understanding.
At John Sweeney & Sons, we believe in honouring each life with a service that reflects the individual's unique journey. Whether you require immediate assistance or wish to plan ahead, our team is here to guide you with empathy and professionalism.
Today, the legacy continues with John's son, Ned Sweeney, at the helm, alongside his daughter Niamh Sweeney. Together, they bring a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to supporting families during their most challenging times.
