  • 5 Chris Reed 29th Apr 2024

    Simply excellent.  Arranging Mum's funeral was never going to be an easy time but Rosedale have made everything as painless and as positive as it could possibly have been.  We have mainly dealt with Kathryn and Janet in their Bungay office and both have been outstanding.  Nothing was too much trouble and they have attended to every last detail with us.  We had excellent service and support on the funeral day.  Well done Rosedale - we could not recommend them more highly.

    Kath Robinson replied
    Thank you so much for your kind words Chris, It was our honour to look after the arrangements for your dear mum. With our grateful thanks to you all for trusting us at this most difficult time. Kathryn and Janet

    They looked after us well from start to finish and we were so grateful for the kindness shown to us at such a sad time.

  • 5 Julie Rye 19th Mar 2024

    Rosedale has looked after my Father, brother and recently my mother. The kindness and respect they show is beyond words. Kathryn and Janet in the funeral home to  Kevin and the other Bearers at the funeral and then Brian at the internment of ashes were all as respectful and kind as each other . At the time in our lives when there is so much grief and at times confusion kindness and just a kind look is worth so very much and each and everyone has that . I thank them on behalf of all my family xxx 

    Kath Robinson replied
    Dear Julie - It was an absolute privilege to be able to help you when you needed us most. We send you our very best of wishes and should there be anything further we can do to help you - please do let us know - we are always here to help. With kindest regards Janet and Kathryn
