My name is Rookie Shewfelt , I grew up in a large family that ran school bus and snow removal companies. Over the years I’ve helped build bridges, operated skid steer, mechanic work and even carpentry. I started with Wilbert in 2009 working on the tank side of things and Wilbert helped me with getting my Class 1, but the funeral side of Wilbert has been the most enjoyable part for me. I’ve been working with funeral vaults for 7 years and truly enjoy traveling Alberta’s countryside, visiting unique cemeteries and making grieving families’ day a little bit easier.
I’ve had the opportunity to travel to Chicago to see how and where Wilbert started. During our stay, I won the Wilbert Way Sprint Championship, meaning I was able to set up a Wilbert Way vault in under five minutes!
I enjoy the time I get to spend with my two beautiful daughters and golfing with the Wilbert boys.
Wilbert has been an amazing place to work for the past nine years and I’m eager to see where it takes me.
