A Tradition of Compassion and Expertise

The McCulloch-Watson Funeral Home has proudly served Durham and surrounding communities for over 75 years. Guided by a deep-seated commitment to compassion and sensitivity, we are dedicated to celebrating the lives of those who have passed and supporting the grieving process of their loved ones.

Our History: A Legacy of Care

Our story begins in the late 1800s with a historic horse-drawn hearse, lovingly restored and cherished by our current owner, Dawn McNab. Through the decades, our services have evolved, reflecting changing societal norms and the need for inclusive and personalized remembrance.
