A Funeral with Respect
Rowland Brothers have helped bereaved families as undertakers in Croydon and South London since 1873. Still very much a family firm, we’re proud to serve clients from every religious denomination and ethnic group. We have worked closely with many families in the Croydon community helping them through the most difficult time in our lives and our 140-year connection with the area makes us an active member of the community. We want to help you organise a funeral that lets you remember your loved one with dignity and with respect. We believe that the funeral is a vital part of coming to terms with bereavement and that accordingly, the day should be as memorable and meaningful as possible. We encourage the importance of making a funeral personal and unique to your loved one, to help your family and friends share memories and make the ceremony even more special to you.
