McIntyre & Wilkie Funeral Home Gilchrist Chapel

Established in 1932 by Elmer F. McIntyre at 100 Woolwich Street, opposite St. George’s Anglican Church, our firm moved to its present location at the corner of Delhi Street and Eramosa Road in the early 1940s. As an ambulance service was also part of the business – common for funeral homes at that time – the new location near the Guelph General Hospital was particularly convenient.

McIntyreBuilt in the early 1890’s by C.W. Kelly, a well-known Guelph music store owner, our distinctive building was originally a private home. Over the years the growth of the business has necessitated the expansion and renovation of the property. Harry W. Wilkie was responsible for many of the early changes.
