What families have to say about working with Osbornes

Loading...
Following some close family losses we have engaged the Osbornes Funeral Home team in Rotorua for their help in creating a fitting farewell. The team were friendly, engaging, and really took their time to find out what we needed so they could adapt their service to suit. I have used them on three separate occasions, for three very different services, and they went above and beyond every time. They make a difficult time that much easier, highly recommended.
