The Wilson Funeral home staff are all passionate about the work that they do with bereaved families. They would be happy to provide information about the services that The Wilson Funeral Home can offer to you. This will ensure that the funeral that you arrange is truly representative of the person’s life that you are honouring and is an appropriate and personal tribute to them.

They are actively involved in community education and would be happy to speak with any groups about their work. They also offer grief education to rest home staff, hospital staff or any other care providers.


Stephen Walker, Manager of The Wilson Funeral Home.


I thank you for your interest in The Wilson Funeral Home.

It is with a great deal of pride that I lead the team of professional people, each day at Wilson’s.

The company has over 100 years of commitment to excellence of service to families within the Wellington region. It is a testimony to that service which leads to its continued position within the community.

It is our desire to assist families to achieve a unique and lasting experience which would reflect and be compatible with the qualities of a person they have loved and respected. It is of great importance to families that we continue to listen and respond to the smallest of requests; with an attitude that nothing is impossible so as to be able to create a memory that celebrates the closing chapter of a loved one’s life.

I entered the industry at the age of 26 and have had the privilege of owning two funeral homes during my Funeral Directing career within New Zealand. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to manage a funeral home with such a long and proud history. Wellingtonian’s are known for their creativity and sensitivity to the environment, this has led to New Zealand’s first Natural Burial site in MakaraCemetery and other eco initiatives.

It is my commitment in leadership, having witnessed the consciousness of this community to continue to inspire my professional staff to reach for the highest levels of service to the families that ask us to be part of a very important moment of their lives’.
