Locklear & Son Funeral Home has a tradition of a local family serving other local families. In 1948 Pattie & Luther Locklear bought the funeral home formerly owned by Pates Supply Company in Pembroke, NC. It was known then as Pembroke Funeral Home.

Later in the same year the funeral home was relocated to a two story building which was the residence of Pattie & Luther Locklear and became Locklear Funeral Home.

Upon the return of Luther’s son Samuel from Michigan in 1952, the funeral home became known as Locklear & Son Funeral Home. Samuel attended Dallas Institute-Gupton Jones College of Mortuary Science and was licensed in 1955. The funeral home remained in the now Pembroke Legal Aid Building until 1975.

Locklear & Son moved to its present location on Union Chapel Road in 1975. With over 58 years of dedicated service to Robeson County and surrounding areas, and a staff that is knowledgeable and willing to help you 24 hours a day, seven days a week, we are capable to meet your every need. We are committed to serve you and your family to make this process as easy and stress free as possible.
