Our Latest Update


East Greenwich, RI – July 8, 2025 — Hill-Skeffington Funeral Home and Cremations, a trusted name in Rhode Island for generations, is proud to share exciting updates on the construction of its new home. Following the devastating fire that affected its original location, the Hill-Skeffington team has been deeply dedicated to rebuilding with care, community, and legacy in mind.

With the foundation scheduled for pouring next week and framing set to start in early August, the new building is quickly taking shape. The exterior is expected to be finished by mid-November, with plans for full occupancy by February 2026.



“This project means a lot to me and my family, and I’m grateful to have Servpro leading this rebuild,” said John Skeffington, owner and President. “We are creating a space that will serve our community for many years, with the same care, respect, and compassion that Hill-Skeffington has always stood for.”


Throughout the rebuilding process, Hill-Skeffington has continued to serve families with dignity and care from its temporary location at 700 Main Street, East Greenwich, and in partnership with other trusted funeral homes across the state.

The Hill-Skeffington team is excited to welcome families to their new space in early 2026, one that reflects the warmth, service, and history the community knows and trusts.
