we have gone through 3 deaths in a short time and have not had time to deal with each but the help and support we have received from all of you has made it so much easier to greive and deal with the practical tasks of letting a loved one go . i have spent a life dealing with people in many types of proffesions in good and bad times young and old to feel the genuien caring and support from you is something that will remain with us always our love and thanks to all

We appreciated and kind and competent approach from staff at Prairie Rose. We felt like our loved one was cared about and treated with dignity and respect. We appreciated being listened to and having our wishes understood -never receiving a sale talk but having a personal approach to our situation

When my mom passed, I called Prairie Rose Crematorium and they made arrangements to pick up my mom and handle her cremation. I found them to be respectful of my mom ashes, kind, sympathetic and knowledgeable when it came time to fill out the paperwork. They were also affordable. I highly recommend them.

Thank you for your kindness, love and respect during this difficult time. You have made our family feel taken care of by helping to honour our mother Margaret Sandilands. We truly appreciate your support and understanding. Warmly Jayne and family.

They provided excellent service for my son and, just recently, for my brother. They are very helpful and compassionate towards individuals who are going through the loss of a loved one. I highly recommend them.

Wonderful group of people who were so compassionate and helpful.
My only constructive feedback would be…when we used your services previously, we were given a pamphlet on places to contact when someone has died. Luckily I still had a copy, but families you help if the future would find it really helpful if it was still included.

I can't thank Elizabeth and everyone at Prairie Rose enough for all their kindness and their help through this most difficult time for myself and my family. Your compassion and thoughtfulness will never be forgotten.

We just sat down with April and did our cremation preplanning. We had looked at another funeral home in Red Deer but were not impressed with the upselling…April listened to our requests and provided exactly what we wanted. No pressure tactics. No upselling. Honesty and well explained. We highly recommend Prairie Rose. Amazing service

Thank you Prairie Rose for helping me and my sons dealing with my husband/father funeral needs. Understanding and caring for what we can’t/can do. May God bless you always ! From the Stickney family ?❤️

Prairie Rose funerals have such compassionate and caring staff. The whole process was handled by them so efficiently and we didn’t worry about anything. There was absolutely no pressure and they provided us with a stress less experience.

Elizabeth and April were extremely helpful, compassionate and caring. They made me feel comforted and made sure I understood all the details. I would highly recommend Prairie Rose Cremation & Funeral Services. Very professional!

Both my brother and I were very happy with the service
provided by Elizabeth . We were comfortable asking
questions, we knew what our mother wanted and we
followed through with her wishes.

The Funeral Director was very prompt, courteous and compassionate. She answered all my questions and the ashes of our loved one was returned to us quickly. I highly recommend this service for all the above reasons.

Prairie Rose provided us with professional and personal service with very little notice. It was much appreciated. One phone call and everything was arranged. Thank you for making this difficult time be a little less stressful.

Your services are excellent, took a lot of worries on what to do. When it’s my time to go, I’ll be using your services.
Thankyou for that you’ve done
Sincerely Rick

Amy was absolutely incredible with our family as we planned our Mom's Cremations. She was very caring and compassionate. She explained the process to us and our choices. She left it up to us to make our decisions with no pressure. Our family would highly recommend Prairie Rose. From the first meeting to the time of picking up our Mom's ashes, all of their staff was incredible.

Both of the people we dealt with were very helpful, showed empathy, listened and I felt like they really did care. They walked us through the process and let us talk, ask questions and we feel that they were rushed to get going to the next client.
Thank-you for helping us during this difficult time.

We tragically lost our son at the end of March. Crissindra was amazingly supportive to our family during this very difficult time. Her warmth and kindness when offering suggestions as she guided us through our Son's memorial planning will not be forgotten. Her explaining the government forms was very helpful and eased the stress of the enormity of our loss. We as a family highly recommend Prairie Rose when you lose a loved one they will take care of you.

We are very grateful that all of Milton's wishes were honored by the Prairie Funeral Home and all their staff were very professional and compassionate during this difficult time.

From the first day I discovered Prairie Rose Cremation and Funeral services and learned it was, basically, Alternatives renamed, I have been delighted with your service and friendly help during the entire process. I will continue to let anyone interested know about your existence and the integrity with which you serve. Many thanks for your outstanding help.

The service of Prairie Rose was kind and compassionate. I was presented with options but not pressured into anything. They had answers to question, information I needed and I was able to celebrate my Dad’s life just as he wanted.

Thank you so very much for your help and support with the arrangements for my mother.
Elizabeth was wonderful and so kind.
We highly recommend your services.
Thank you all again

Our Family recently lost our beautiful and loving Mother. With the care and support (in every single detail), Prairie Rose was there to guide us in every way possible. The staff was very respectful and everything went absolutely perfect. We can't say enough for the care and compassion of Prairie Rose. Thank You from the bottom of our hearts.

We have needed Prairie Rose (Aternatives) services four times over the last 10 years. Each time the staff has always provided exemplary service. Friendly, understanding, no pressure. Thanks for being there for us.

I highly recommend Prairie Rose. I recently lost my only sibling, my brother. Our parents are out of province, they made sure everything went smooth and followed our wishes with absolute respect and care. We chose direct cremation with no service and there was no pressure or any 'upselling' of any kind.

Truly adore Prairie Rose Cremation & Funeral Services. I highly recommend them to everyone because they are so passionate & kind. Especially through difficult times, they handle everything with care.

My experience with Prairie Rose Funeral and Cremation Services has been very positive. Diann Rowat came to my home with everything I would need to take care of already prepared for me. No up-front payment was requested. Thank you so much Diann for all your help.
Prairie Rose Funerals comes highly recommended for their services.

Arrangements were made quickly, quietly, respectfully, paperwork I would ultimately be needing was provided to me. At my husband’s death Prairie Rose took over and everything was completed in a very timely manner. I’m so grateful for the quiet discretion and peace it gave me.

Thank you for the kindness and the support you showed me, and the patients you gave me. I don't think I would of made it through this devastating time. Thanks for everything to you and Stacey.

My wife and I were referred to prairie rose after struggling with the funeral home that we had used for my dad. The rates had become outrageous. Prairie Rose took over with gentleness and compassion for my mom. Thank you Elizabeth for your professionalism.

I would like to thank the staff of Prairie Rose for all their support during a most difficult time . You made things so much easier for me and I really appreciate that . Your service was excellent .

We dealt mainly with Elizabeth. I found her to be very empathetic and understanding. She made a very difficult time just a little bit easier. I will be forever grateful for that. Everyone we had contact with was respectful.

From the first phone I made asking for assistance when my son passed to the moment they had fulfilled all my needed requests for his service all the staff were not only top notch service wise but the they compassion they degenerated was sincere and very heart felt.

Thank you all very much.

The people at Prairie Rose were very caring and compassionate. They provided all the information required and were very accommodating in providing their services. I would definitely recommend them.

I highly recommend Prairie Rose Creamations and Funersl Services.. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth! After checking around with a couple other funeral homes in Red Deer , I found Elizabeth to be genuine and caring. Also, the overall cost for their services was at least half of what the other funeral homes were asking.

We used Prairie Rose for my Mother last year. They kindly answered my Father’s call and all his questions late at night. They were caring, genuine, balanced, and professional. No pressure. Affordable ($1000 less than another local crematorium) and handled everything from start to finish with great care, and in a timely manner. Highly recommend.

They have taken care of my mother, father and brother. They were very kind and compassionate and helped us understand everything that needed to be done. There was no pressure and everything was done just as we wanted it. I highly recommend them.

Those that helped us were very companionate and caring.
Couldn’t have asked for a better reception from all that work there.
They made our experience easy even though it was a hard day.

I was very pleased with the service I received from Prairie Rose. It is a very stressful time for a family and I didn't feel pressured or vulnerable at any time. The staff was courteous and very helpful with everything. I would recommend this company to anyone.

found your service to be excellent, especially the fact that
you come to the house, just makes things simpler and
less stressful. would highly recommend your company.
Everyone was lovely to deal with.

Your professionalism and sensitivity were very much on point, making our journey easier than I expected. I would certainly recommend you to anybody looking for this type of service.

This is Mrs Spielman ,I am letting you know that I appreciate everything you did for my Dearest husband, Robert, whom I miss so dearly, everything was done right , Thank you very much ❤️ My kids will be using you when I'm ready to go & meet up with Robert !!
❤️

Very kind professional and knowledgeable people to deal with at a difficult time. No pressure to purchase unnecessary additional services. Mom had purchased her funeral wishes ahead of time. We are happy to say her wishes were fulfilled.

Diann and her staff have gone above and beyond helping me with the lose of my father Walter Dziwinski last Sept 19/22. I am hoping you can move his obituary to your new location being as you handled all the arrangement. I would highly recommend and will go no where else in future need. Thank you is not enough.

When it was time to need the services of a funeral home, I sought out the services of Prairie Rose at their Airdrie location. During the entire experience, it was clear that Diane and her staff understood our needs and that they were there to genuinely and sincerely help us. I have worked with many funeral homes over many years as a pastor. As a person who has had much experience with funeral directors, I can tell you with all honesty that Diane is among the very best.

I was very impressed by the efficiency and attention to detail given to us in the passing of my mother earlier this year. They handled organizing everything from the service to organizing the lunch following and got me started down the road to dealing with government notifications etc. required . I defnitely appreciated them coming to the house to make the funeral plans. They certainly made that time much less stressful than it could have been. Thanks again to Diane and staff.

Our family has dealt with Prairie Rose Cremation (Alternatives) throughout many years and just lately with the passing of my brother. Over the years their commitment to the family needs have never wavered. Prairie Rose went above my expectations. The compassion and caring shown by the staff is so amazing. The many people I have recommended Prairie Rose to have been so very grateful and definitely share the same sediments that I do. I am so ever grateful to have had this experience with caring people when one is dealing with loss of a loved one.

We were so pleased with the kind, compassionate service we received from Prairie Rose when my husband passed away. From the time they came to my home for arrangements till the final moments of the funeral I felt listened to, comforted, and consoled.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank Crissinda for the professionalism and more importantly, the kindness she showed our family during the passing of a family member. From the moment we called the funeral home, Crissinda was there for our family. She guided us through the arrangements and explained each step that needed to happen. Crissinda even had team members drop off funeral cards to local businesses in Didsbury in order to let community members know of the funeral date and time. Her graveside presence gave a calm to our family as we proceeded with the service. The officiant was appropriate and respectful of our wishes for the service. During what could have been a very trying time, our family felt at ease having Crissinda and her team helping us. Thank you so very much. M. Quarin

I handle some elderly peoples estates in Edmonton, Red Deer and Calgary and carry out their funeral wishes. From when I first contacted Prairie Rose until the services were concluded, everything was looked after professionally and in a timely manner. Except for some minor errors in paperwork would definitely recommend.

Upon losing my step father in October of 2019, I came across their ad. The person we met with was amazing. Five short months later I lost my mom at 2 in the morning. I didn't hesitate. I called them up again and once again everyone who came was amazing. A few months after that another family member passed and I recommended them. And to my knowledge the same person was sent out to help my extended family. These people have gone above and beyond for my family. I will always be grateful to them.

Absolutely the best service, kindest most respectful staff that went out of their way to accommodate the family’s needs. Diane is extremely helpful and professional and went above and beyond to help u all
I would also like to add that I have not been hounded for payment at all which is common with other sources
