The climate and culture of the business is set the owner Frank who genuinely cares for his clients and their families.

They were available right away and were so helpful and nice- we had the service this past Sunday. They prayed with the family before the service started and asked all guest to stand as we entered. They also made sure we were comfortable when it was time for the repast to begin. There were only a couple things that are a little on the negative side I want to mention...they informed us that they would provide the water which was not 100% the case. When we showed up with all our cases of soda there was no water, an employee overheard me ask for some and placed 2 small pitchers on the table with only 20+ cups. That I can remember no one stayed on top of it to make sure it stayed full- thank goodness we brought our own cups for"just in case moments" The last thing I want to mention is that they did not let the family exit the chapel first, and seat themselves at a table to eat. Once we arrived friends were already in line for food and family members were standing. Other funerals I have attended the family is seated and served first. Thankfully there was plenty of food, that just seemed a bit odd. Other than those 2 hiccups they took great care of us THANK YOU

From the initial phone call to arranging the motorcycle escort to the cemetery, these folks were professional and helpful to a tee. Their limo even took family to a third location where an informal reception was held, no problem. Inside the funeral home (funeral apartment?), there was a main room laid out with pews and a small dais at the front. Off to one side, a separate room where family could get together separately or where people could take a few minutes to catch a brief respite from the emotions of the event. The rooms were bright and airy, not stuffy or dingy at all. Plenty of parking in the lot at the back. Easy enough to get to from 264. Their folks did a great job of keeping things on schedule without rushing at all. As I said, very professional. While I certainly hope not to need their service, if I do have such a need then I will give these folks a call. If you're here, please accept my condolences on your loss. You'll be in good hands.

Rosewood is a funeral home and private cemetery located on the west side of Witchduck Road between…read moreits intersection with Independence & Virginia Beach Boulevard. It's a large cemetery that is the final resting place for some of my friend's close family members. One I considered a friend and a great Fantasy Football competitor. The world misses his sense of humor and devotion to his family. The other is a child who never got to grow older and is buried next to his grandfather. The cemetery is well kept. Mowing and removal of dead flowers is regularly done. There is a crypt & a columbarium. The reason for the three star review is the required tombstone design. They are all flat to the ground with a holder in which flowers can be placed. The view from the road only shows the content of the flower holders. This lover of cemeteries prefers standing tombstones of various designs, many of which tell the story of a life. I've visited and photographed cemeteries from Massachusetts to Mississippi and love sharing them on line with family members from afar, who would otherwise never see their ancestors grave. Although Rosewood Memorial Park is immaculately maintained, I've seen many flat tombstones that have become covered with grass and dirt. During my explorations I always take a small hoe & trowel to free the flat tombstone of strangers as much as possible. I'm sure it's a matter of personal preference. But I don't like the aesthetics of a cemetery with only flat tombstones with the only visible part of the grave being the holder for flowers.

On April 15, 2026, they helped us lay my mother to rest, and what they created was nothing short of breathtaking. Every detail--from the release of the doves, to the elegance of the mausoleum, the moving words of the preacher, the gentle touch of the organist, the stunning floral arrangements, the thoughtfully prepared food, and the seamless coordination of transportation--was handled with excellence and grace. It was not just a service; it was a beautiful homegoing celebration worthy of the life my mother lived. What truly set this experience apart was their heart. This team didn't just "do their job"--they walked alongside me. They checked in often, not out of obligation, but out of genuine care, always asking how I wanted to honor my momma. They listened. They guided. They supported. In one of the most difficult moments of my life, they made me feel seen, heard, and held. From the phenomenal ladies at the front office (yes, I absolutely adore you all--go on, girls!) to the dedicated team working behind the scenes, every single person demonstrated professionalism, patience, compassion, and class. Their ability to balance organization with empathy is truly a gift. If this were a performance, every member of this team would deserve an Emmy, a standing ovation, and more. But this wasn't a performance--it was real, sincere, and deeply meaningful service delivered with excellence. Thank you for helping me give my mother the farewell she deserved. You didn't just meet expectations--you exceeded them in every possible way. Bravo to each and every one of you. You are truly remarkable.

When we saw our son at the funeral home he looked like a perfect little boy sleeping. They did his makeup very naturally which is what I really appreciated.

Together my baby boy and the teddy bear looked so cute and I'm so glad they provided that to him because I felt a sense of relief that he wasn't alone. Sometimes it's the little details that matter.
