This time I was approached as I entered the cemetary by an employee that wanted me to fill out a raffle ticket! On my exit I was approached by more employees trying to do the same. What a deplorable, greedy, and tasteless way to do business. It is shameful, disgraceful and disrespectful to prey upon people who are only there to visit and mourn the loss of their loved ones.

I simply was there for the burials. The cemetery looked very well kept. The staff on the grounds were friendly. I watched them put my granny in the ground when they thought all of my family had left. I've never stayed at a cemetery long enough to witness that. They seemed to take great care in burying her. I don't know know about their pricing or sales practices. Looking at the other reviews, I'm a bit concerned there. If I ever needed their services in the future for a family member, I may consider them.

I also think toilets the flushing need to be fix even if you said hold and push down once it did it goes down but 2nd time trying it would not go flush. The bathrooms are nice.

The cemetery is nice and big but what a snake road soooo long you drive thru like a long snake road. It was my first time here so place is pretty big. There was no service at all no mention of telling other cars to line up in the back telling one car but not others.

Wow, I'm actually writing a review on a funeral home. Losing a loved one is extremely difficult,…read moreand the entire process can be overwhelming. We sought the services of Woodlawn last year when my Aunt passed away, and Liana made the process go smoothly as possible. I couldn't believe how beautiful she looked. Now here we are again, needing their services again, as my grandmother passed away on April 8th. With the issue of COVID-19, things were a little different. We had the pleasure of working with Liana again, and she arranged for a private viewing of my grandmother, where we could view her in groups of 10. We were not able to have a traditional funeral, therefore, a private gravesite funeral was arranged to host my grandmother's Home Going celebration, and it was just as beautiful, just like she was. The grounds of where your loved one will be laid to rest, are simply gorgeous. I hope this review will give someone reassurance that your family will be well taken care of. So with that being said, losing a loved one is never easy, but Woodlawn will make your experience as seamless as possible.

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.

Aubrey is in one of the outside facing crypts, per his wishes. Very sad, really, to watch them scissor lift the casket into place, slide it in, then seal it up with caulk and duct tape before covering it back over with the marble. The staff, even the guys not in suits, were appropriately professional and quiet, giving the family plenty of room to grieve while they did what they needed to do.

When someone is handling the final services for your friend or loved one, you want to make sure…read morethat the small details have been considered. I attended this location for the home-going services of a family friend. When driving, you must slow down or you'll miss the exit. There is plenty of parking, staff were extremely courteous and accommodating. Each pew had a box of tissues for mourners and the person selected to speak did a phenomenal job. They have a television on the left and right side of the room to allow for viewing of photos that were in a montage of the deceased. Everything was tasteful and timely. Not that I'm looking to give them any business anytime soon; but I do think they are affordable, professional and able to anticipate the needs of a grieving family without price gouging.

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. The makeup wasn't caked on and it actually made him look more alive than he did at the hospital. Not only that but they dressed him and put him in a swaddle accompanied with a teddy bear. 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. My son was beautiful and I want to thank Sheri Mathis for taking care of our son so so well.

I stopped to ask this gentlemen what he thought and he told me he was livid because he buried his wife here in February and they had not even put sod on her grave. This is what happens when Big conglomerates take over and then ax everything. Rosewood / Kellum tighten up now. The pic I took does not do justice to the condition of the grounds because it is up closer to the road but most of it is much worse, and the further back you go, the worse it gets. I am not one to write bad reviews but felt this needed to be highlighted.
