Leslie County owes its rich history to the hard working people who endured back breaking work to build a life for their families in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. The lives that have been carved out in the Appalachians are what have made Leslie County what it is today. It is this spirit and character that convinced Dwayne Walker to open his funeral home in the community he loved in 1952.
Since opening more than 60years ago, the Walker family and staff have built a legacy of care, compassion and quality service in Hyden. Staff members of Walker Funeral Home are caring and experienced professionals who understand that each family is unique and has personal requests and traditions. These requests and traditions are of utmost importance to our staff of licensed funeral directors.

Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance. Understanding the benefits of pre-planning has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements.
Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice.
Most of us are not prepared to plan and carry out a funeral ceremony for someone we love. And so much of the information available on this critically important subject fails to focus on what is most important: having a personalized, meaningful funeral that helps families and friends begin the healing process of mourning after the death of someone we love.
Someone you love has died. You are now faced with the difficult, but important, need to mourn.

At the Dwayne Walker Funeral Home, we believe in this community and do all that we can to make it better for those who call Hyden and Leslie County their home.
