Wheeler Funeral Home

A Legacy of Compassion

about us

A Shared Legacy, A Shared Future

For decades, Veilleux & Redington Funeral Home in Waterville and Lawry Brothers Funeral Home in Fairfield have provided compassionate care during life’s most difficult moments. Each location has been a trusted part of its community’s history, built on years of dedication, respect, and personal service.


When we came together, we made the decision to sell the Fairfield building and focus our energy on renovating and updating the Waterville location. This has allowed us to bring all our care, services, and team under one roof—offering families an updated, comfortable, and welcoming space while preserving the traditions that have defined us for generations.
