Mike, Elaine and I were very pleased with the professional manner in which Charmaine co-ordinated and organised our requests for Sheila's funeral.
There were many aendments to the order of service along the way which were taken on board and met our requests.
On the day her organisation and implementation of everything was superb.
Many thanks Charmaine, for us you made a sad occasion one that we will forever remember.

Very professional but friendly and approachable.
They were able to guide us gently through the necessary procedures.
I don't think they could have done anymore to make us feel comfortable, and confident that the funeral would go without a hitch.
I would recommend them to anybody if you have need of their services.
Thank you to everybody at Rosedale, Diss.
