What Makes Us Unique

What Makes Us Unique

We are Kitchener's only independant family owned funeral home

"I often get asked the question about how are we different from other service providers in the community. The first thing that comes to mind is that people seem to like the fact that we are on one level, we have lots of parking, we have a wonderful team of people to care for our families. However, one thing that is important to me and I know it is important to the rest of our team is that Life is a Gift and that gift provides many memories. We believe that our work is to help you tell the story in whatever way you want to tell it." - Henry Walser 

We are the only independent family owned funeral home in Kitchener, Ontario.  Our funeral home is comprised of experienced, caring, compassionate and highly professional employees.  Together, we are committed to serving our community in their time of need with providing funeral services that help them honour their departed loved one. We embrace traditional values and welcome diversity and innovation in honouring the lives of the departed. Henry Walser Funeral Home offers a full selection of funeral and memorial services as well as burial services and cremation options.

Grieving the loss of a loved one is usually a very difficult process.
