The building was originally a large home at the corner of White Horse Pike & Cooper Folly Rd. that was converted into a funeral home and the family residence. In 1962 an extensive addition was added giving the funeral home one of the largest viewing rooms in the area. Wooster added a crematory and the business became the LeRoy P. Wooster Funeral Home & Crematory, as we know it today. This unique addition made our business one of only two funeral home operated crematories in the state of New Jersey

In 1976, founder and owner LeRoy P. Wooster passed away unexpectedly. With the help of professionally licensed staff, his wife, Alice Wooster maintained the business until her son LeRoy P. Wooster received his funeral directors license in 1986 introducing the second generation of the family into the business. Today, over 60 years later, the funeral home continues to be owned and operated by LeRoy P. Wooster who continues his father's legacy with the help of a dedicated, caring and professional staff.

In his personal life, Michael found joy in bowling and sharing spirited poker nights with family and friends.

Kevin Wright

Kevin Michael Wright

10/5/1967 - 2/1/2026

Son of Margaret (11/12/2017) and Macy Wright. Father of Samantha (Albert) and Courtney (Travis). Grandfather to Lainey, Skylar, and Quinn. Brother to Mac (Nancy), Margaret (Pat), and Ann (Jim). Uncle to Patrick, Tommy, Bobby, Devon, and Kirsten (Mike). Beloved and valued by many, many more.

Kevin passed suddenly on February 1, 2026 in Brigantine. While our family absorbs the brutal blow of his unexpected and premature passing, we ground ourselves in cherished memories of a full life lived in the time we were allowed. Memories of a life that was begun as the baby of the brood, Marge's fourth and not-so-secretly favored one. A childhood of unbridled, wild fun in the woods of Penbryn with stories of adventure to rival any great American novel. A dedicated career of service in the police force and to his clients as a contractor. A devoted son and sibling, a loving father, and the most proud and doting grandfather and grand-dog-father.

Come share in these memories with us as we celebrate Kevin's life and say our farewells. Visitation will be held on Saturday, February 7, 2026 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the Leroy P. Wooster Funeral Home, 441 White Horse Pike, Atco, NJ. A family eulogy will begin at 4:00 PM.
