OUR FAMILY COMMITTMENT TO YOU...
MEETING THE PERSONAL NEEDS OF EVERY FAMILY WE HAVE BEEN HONORED TO SERVE. WE DO THIS WITH COMPASSION AND UNDERSTANDING.
Our ownership, management and staff are Oregonians and live right here in your community. The trust that thousands of Oregonians have placed in us is not taken lightly. We realize that each individual family is unique and by providing personalized service with reasonable prices at each of our three convenient locations, we have separated ourselves from many typical funeral homes and cemeteries. Wilhelms Portland Memorial Funeral Home, Mausoleum & Crematory began as Portland Cremation Association in 1901, forming the northwests first cremation association. The cornerstone was placed February, 5, 1901 in the still-existing historic chapel structure. The Povey Brothers, Louis C. Tiffany and the Gerlichs (stained glass artists) designed & installed many of the beautiful historic stained glass skylights and windows throughout the main chapel entryway. In 1910 construction continued on niche and vault room memorials. At that time, it was renamed The Portland Memorial. Construction and improvements have continued over the last 100 years. The historic mausoleum now encompases two and a half city blocks and is one of the largest indoor cemeteries in the Pacific Northwest. In 2008, our private family company (Wilhelm Funeral Home) acquired management of the Portland Memorial Funeral Home and Portland Memorial Mausoleum. With the two formerly separate entities now merged together, our family company offers the services of a funeral home, several chapel areas, crematory, mausoleum and cremation garden memorials in one convenient location. In addition, we are now "pet friendly" and can provide private cremation services and memorials for your faithful family "companion".
