Bunker's Funeral Homes & Cemeteries has always believed in being actively involved in the community of Las Vegas and it is still true today. Here are some of the ways we give back to this wonderful community we call home.
Jovante Woods Fairways Fore Airways Celebrity Golf Tournament
Dragon Ridge Country Club, Henderson, Nevada
April 15-17th, 2023
Bunkers Eden Vale Memorial Park FSC’s Martha Gonzalez and Lora Evans participated in a three-day event supporting the Jovante Woods Foundation, started by former Cincinnati Bengals fullback Ickey Woods. The Fairways Fore Airways Celebrity Golf Tournament included a Family Asthma Awareness Day, a team draft party, and the golf tournament, with all proceeds going to the Foundation.
FSC Lora Evans said, “While it was fun spending the day golfing with NFL, NBA, and MLB legends, the highlight of the weekend happened at the conclusion of the Family Awareness Day. The nurse conducting the free pulmonary testing reported to Ickey that six children’s lives were saved that day through testing. Six families were able to take the testing printouts to their children’s pediatricians to get them started on life-saving treatment and medication. Knowing that our community event impacted these families in such a profound way makes all of the hard work worth it”.
Martha Gonzalez and Lora Evans are both active in various community organizations and find great fulfillment in helping those in our local community.

We helped Ms. Emily Buer with school supplies needed for her 10th grade Algerbra II classes at Chaparral High School.
Bunker’s Funeral Homes & Cemeteries was so honored to have hosted the Trauma Intervention Program (TIP) of Southern Nevada monthly continuing education class last night.
The volunteers were given a tour of the mortuary and Larry Davis, Managing Partner of Bunker’s Mortuaries and Cemeteries led a question and answer session.
There were many comments afterwards on how much they learned and how helpful the session was.
We were also thrilled to celebrate Jill, the CEO of TIP on her 15th anniversary!
