History

Gillette Memorial Chapel (formerly Stevenson-Wilson Funeral Home) was established in 1967, beginning an ever growing commitment to serving area families. For all of these years, this funeral home has been a comfort and service to families in need, “serving when the need is greatest”. 

Walker Funeral Home was established in 2007 as a continuation of the commitment to area families.

Together, the staff at both Gillette Memorial Chapel and Walker Funeral Home, have a long tradition of helping families plan the many details of the funeral service, a service that reflects the life of the individual. We offer a full range of funeral services that are affordable and meaningful. And we are here to listen to the needs and concerns of each family, as we seek to create a meaningful service, appropriate to each family served. 

Our staff is constantly moving forward by participating in several professional development organizations such as the National Funeral Director’s Pursuit of Excellence, the Vertin Excellence Program, the National Funeral Directors Association, the Wyoming Funeral Directors Association and the Campbell County Chamber of Commerce. The staff also participates in the Celebration of Life with NFDAQ, are proud sponsors and winners (2006) of the annual spelling bee for the Literacy Council of Campbell County, participated in the local Trash for Trees event, hosts a planter for the community of Gillette, and they are involved in various community churches, special events and organizations.
