Excellent service from start to finish  Kelly could not help enough. She gave us a path way to follow and lots of help. The boys on the day did a fantastic job in very difficult weather and ice on the ground.

Pat Spurdens 22nd Dec 2025

  • 5 ian Broughton 7th Feb 2024

    From the moment I rang for an appointment and subsequently entered the room at Harleston I felt I was being dealt with kindly. My mother was 101 years old but her passing was still an emotional shock. I then arranged for a funeral arrangement meeting with Rosedale including my brothers. This went well and all was arranged with Rosedale representatives offering support and opinions to help our decisions. My family was more than happy with the overall service.

    Fiona Tate replied
    Dear Ian thank you very much for your very kind review. Thank you for entrusting us with looking after your mother. It was lovely to meet you and your family and I am glad that you were happy with the service you received. Kindest regards Fiona
  • 5 Debbie Bird 26th Jan 2024

    Fiona was very efficient but extremely sympathetic and understanding when I cried. There was a good range of caskets to choose from; my husband who died had always insisted on not 'wasting ' good wood. The casket was beautiful looked like the real thing. The memorial cards with seeds were well liked and appreciated by family members and close friends. The funeral director was very kind and supportive throughout the service. A n excellent service.

    Fiona Tate replied
    Dear Debbie
    Thank you so much for your very kind review. It was a privilege to look after the arrangements for Ray and it was lovely to meet you.If you need anything please do not hesitate to get in touch.
    Kindest regards Fiona
