Doug Bevell was the Funeral Director and he was just wonderful. A very devastating time for all of us (especially as our son was only 30 years old and a newlywed). Doug was extremely caring and professional and met with our daughter in-law and family to discuss and guide our next steps. He was available 24/7 and resulted in a service that was just beautiful. The pastor (Jay Young) was just amazing. He led the service and brought both tears and laughter as he was able to encapsulate our son’s life. Thank you to everyone involved in helping us through this tragic day/week. read less

Doug carefully guided us through the pre-planning of my mother’s funeral back in 2020. Last week, Duane showed so much compassion as he directed my mother’s funeral after her passing from Alzheimer’s. Each and every detail was handled with professionalism. Nothing was missed. Duane has helped our family navigate this process with several family members over the years. The extra touches that Doug and Duane so beautifully made would have profoundly touched my mother as they touched me. I can’t imagine a smoother process in the midst of our time of grief. Thank you to everyone at WFC ❤️ read less

The pre-need coordinator we signed on with was no longer with the company. The current coordinator, Jesse Bessette, happily agreed to meet with us. We were completely satisfied with the meeting, and some follow up he did for us. Jesse was absolutely outstanding in his preparation and conduct of the meeting. More important, we could not dream of someone being more suited to this job than Jesse. His knowledge, commitment to the customer and his loyalty to his company are remarkable. If you are considering making pre-need arrangements, you'll be doing yourself a disservice if you don't give Jesse and WF&C a call. read less

I found out that I had stage 3 cancer. The first thing I thought of is what would my family do? I sent a text through a link on the website that night after seeing the commercial and liking the tone of the advertisement.
Jesse contacted me by text the next morning and we set up appointments after communicating needed questions by email.
I knew what I wanted and was never pressured or swayed. It was comforting and professional. After my brief visit (as Jesse knew I was coming in straight from radiation)-all was ready. We went through page by page, I was prepared to pay in full (so reasonable). When I walked out, I felt lifted and relaxed.
During surgery, there was a bit of time it seemed very iffy. What a relief to my family who is scattered around the East Coast- just call Wilmington Funeral and it’s handled. No jumping on planes. No panic. Handled.
When I learned of that few moments way after ICU- I never wept- I was so relieved my family could do their own celebration but the difficult unknown was done. For those in my life who thought I was having a crisis in this move - they now know it was a blessing and a noble idea. I sent correspondence to Jesse asking him to continue his path. The confidence and comfort gained is such a gift to those left to gather their own lives much less settle mine. I am still here and now cancer free with much thanks to the medical community and Our Father above. But it is necessary to emphasize the huge part that Wilmington Funeral played in my complete recovery. read less

I am so sorry that it has taken so long to do this but shortly after my son's death there was a very bad fire in my home.
I just want to take this time to Thank Mr. Bevell from the Bottom of My Heart for all that he did for me at that time, of the worst experiences of my life. I live alone, and had absolutely no idea, with how numb and lost I felt. Mr. Bevell came to my home right away, and I was made to feel as if he was a family member, who was here to do all he could to help; and God knows that, that was the blessing that I needed. I don't know what I would have done if he would have walked into my home with a Business Attitude. Then before leaving he gave me his number and stated; "Call Me Anytime," and know that "I Am Hear For You." I knew he was of heart because when I did call, Mr. Bevell, he was always so willing to give me the time.
Mr. Bevell should be Highly Commended for the Unconditional Love that came so naturel, to him in dealing with a complete stranger at a time that it was so needed. An impression that I never have forgotten even though it has been two years.

What a kind,caring man he is!
I felt as soon as I walked in the beautiful funeral home and meet Kindal that I had made the right decision placing my husband in their care.
You won’t find a more efficient, caring place for your loved one.
The icing on the cake was when I met Linda at the door. She is an old friend who I had lost touch with. At the end of my meeting, she had a bag of homemade cookies for me.
What a wonderful place!!!

Mr. Matt Payne took such good care of our grandmawmaw (Lord rest her soul.) Despite her advanced health issues which caused her body to wither away (bless her poor little heart), Me-maw looked to be peacefully asleep lying in that coffin. She looked just like the Me-maw we all knew: passed out on a sofa after a few too many Johnny Walkers. Only more dignified.
Mr. Payne was compassionate and understanding of Me-maw's wishes and the needs of the family, and he proved to be skilled at making her look good. Because, frankly, Me-maw died the way she lived and... Well, let's just say Mr. Payne was a miracle worker when it came to the more aesthetic aspects of the funeral.
I never liked Me-maw very much no way; she was a mean old drunk. But that ain't Wilmington Funeral and Cremation's fault. Because our family is a religious bunch, we had a viewing before the cremation and now she's finally peacefully resting in her beautiful little urn. Hardest part was trying to find who would take the remains, though. Me-maw ain't exactly win over too many friends, especially within the family. But WFC was helpful with that, too. She's buried in the most inexpensive grave plot they could help us find, and now both she (and our family) is at peace. And quiet.
Thank you, Mr. Payne and WFC staff, for your prompt and compassionate service. read less

Nothing in life can prepare you for the decisions you have to make in a funeral home, and to have someone so supportive and genuinely concerned about our well-being made making those decisions a little easier.

She also understood that we were on a tight budget and helped us make the right financial decisions. I received a card from her not long ago, just checking in.

I missed saying goodbye to my grandpa (94), a Retired Lt. Col. in the Air Force, and the 2nd time there in two days, upon arrival to visit, there were 5 American Flags displayed in the parking lot, a hearse with the Air Force emblem on the side and I thought someone else in the Air Force was having a funeral that day! Nope... That was all for my grandpa!
Upon entering the private room and approach him, I see him looking so peaceful, in his uniform, with a flag draped over the end of the cremation box. Not only was he displayed honorably as someone who fought for our country, but also as a grandpa, a dad, a husband and much more!

I must say that this was one of the hardest things I have had to do. Dolly went to heaven but he still had to decide what to do with her body. He decided to have Dolly cremated. Our vet which is Port City Animal Hospital took care of getting Dolly to Coastal Pet Cremations which I believe is affiliated with Wilmington Funeral & Cremation. I picked up little Dolly today and when I opened her box I must say that I was blown away. The care and sympathy enclosed was remarkable. Dolly was enclosed in a beautiful wooden box with her name engraved on a gold plaque, there was a beautiful clay mold of her paw, a beautiful note & last but not least a bag that had a lock of her hair enclosed. I appreciate so much the care that was enclosed in the box and the honor that was bestowed in our little girl...your passion for representing your company to the highest level has been acknowledge based on all that your gave back.
