  • 5 David and Jodie Hockaday 2nd Dec 2021

    Thankfully I had no previous experience of organising a funeral, but it did mean that I had no idea what to expect, what needed to be organised or how it worked. As the anxiety kicked in of what I needed to do, thankfully Rosedale came to our rescue. Right from our very first meeting they were nothing but courteous, professional and respectful. But beyond that, they cared, not just about the funeral, but us as a family. Rosedales made the most difficult of times much more bearable and above all made the funeral itself, beautiful. On several occasions we were happily surprised at their attention to detail and how they went above and beyond on several occasions. When the sad time arises for their services again, I shall have no hesitation in instructing Rosedale. Thank you for making our sons funeral so beautiful as it made saying goodbye just a little bit easier.

  • 5 Joy Dawson 2nd Dec 2021

    We honestly cannot fault the way my Fathers funeral was dealt with by Rosedale Funeral Home, we were treated with kindness and compassion from our first contact with them up to and including the day of the funeral. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they went over and above to accommodate our wishes. The funeral itself was carried out with the upmost dignity and I would recommend them to anyone.

  • 5 John Simmons 28th Jul 2021

    I found the arrangements made by Christian to be of the highest professional standard and it helped to make a very difficult time easier. Due to the fact that Karen was given such a genuinely caring service for us to say goodbye , a friend who lost her Mother shortly after our funeral, contacted your Wymondham funeral home to ask them to assist her.
    Thank you all so very much.
    John Simmons

    Rachel Allen replied
    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review John, we really appreciate it. I am glad that we were able to look after you and give Karen the service she deserved & that now we are able to assist your friend in the same way. I will be sure to pass your kind words on to Christian. Thanks again, kind regards Rachel, Rosedale Funeral Home
