Wilbert Funeral Home

Wilbert Funeral Home, located at 440 South Alexander Avenue in Port Allen, Louisiana, has been a cornerstone of compassionate end-of-life care since its founding in 1850. For over 170 years, this family-owned and operated funeral home has served families in West Baton Rouge Parish and the surrounding communities, carrying forward a legacy of dignity, respect, and personalized service through six generations of the Wilbert family. The funeral home is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and is closed on weekends, though arrangements can often be made for after-hours needs. The facility is fully accessible, with a wheelchair-accessible entrance and parking lot, ensuring all families can navigate the space comfortably during visitations, services, and planning meetings.

Wilbert Funeral Home offers a comprehensive range of service options designed to honor the unique life of each individual. Traditional funeral services, memorial ceremonies, cremation with or without a viewing, and graveside services are all available. Families can also choose personalized celebrations of life that reflect the personality and beliefs of their loved one. The funeral home maintains an on-site crematory, providing families the peace of mind that comes with direct oversight of the cremation process. In addition, Wilbert Funeral Home is proud to offer specialized veterans tribute services, recognizing the sacrifice and service of those who have served in the armed forces.

Beyond immediate-need arrangements, the staff at Wilbert Funeral Home encourages families to consider pre-planning.

The funeral home’s experienced team handles all logistics, paperwork, and coordination with cemeteries, clergy, and other vendors, ensuring that every detail is managed with care and professionalism. Wilbert Funeral Home also serves families from the broader Baton Rouge area, including Baker, Central, Denham Springs, Gonzales, Plaquemine, and other nearby communities.

In addition to its primary location in Port Allen, the Wilbert family operates a second funeral home in Plaquemine, Louisiana, as well as Grace Cemetery and Crematory and the Wilbert Life Insurance Company. This network of services allows families to access a continuum of support, from funeral planning to burial and financial protection. Wilbert Funeral Home remains dedicated to helping local families navigate the farewell process with empathy, respect, and attention to the details that matter most. Whether arranging a simple cremation or an elaborate traditional service, families can trust Wilbert Funeral Home to provide guidance and comfort every step of the way.
