Wilkerson Funeral Home & Crematory We provide affordable funeral, memorial, personalization, aftercare, pre-planning and cremation serv S.G.

Wilkerson & Sons is an independently owned funeral home that has been operated by the same family of owners since 1932. In a time when many funeral homes are owned by a conglomerate or absentee owner, Wilkerson Funeral Home and Crematory has stood firm as an independently owned and operated funeral home. We are governed by the families we serve, not by a board of directors or an owner living and working outside of the community. We are committed to offering fair and compassionate treatment to everyone. Four generations of the Wilkerson family have combined to serve the families of Pitt, Craven and the surrounding counties with quality, affordable service. We are grateful for the confidence the public has placed in us and pledge to always work diligently and honestly to maintain this trust.
