I would like to thank Kelly and all of you for the wonderful care you gave during the time of our Mom’s passing. The professionalism shown to us (Dorothy Kirchmann, Bonnie Jean Burkhardt and me) was much appreciated. Kelly was so kind and thoughtful the evening Mom passed. And the food box delivered to Dorothy was wonderful and totally unexpected.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Kelly & Tim,
We just wanted to extend our thanks to your for your efforts with our Dad’s funeral. From the initial arrangements to the flowers, to the displays & video and obviously, to the line up of classic cars. Somehow, you seamlessly pulled everything off for us and took much of the bruden off of our family. You made an incredible trying time comfortable, touching & memorable, we can’t say enough about how respectful & easy you made this experience. You truly went out of your way for us and we wanted you to know how much it meant to us. Kelly, it was so nice to see you at the Blacksmith, you not only led us through one of the hardest times of our lives, but you are also a good friend.

I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to the Roberts Family Funeral Home for taking such good care of my grandma and our family at such a difficult time. My Grandma Rose Kasma of Wyoming, passed away last week, she was 90 years young. Towards the end she wasn’t looking her normal self so when my daughter Jordan looked up to me at the viewing and said, “Mom, Grandma looks so pretty,” I knew that Tim the funeral director did his job perfectly. The funeral arrangements never seemed like a business transaction, it was warm and personal. Kelly & Tim called our family members and pallbearers by their name. Every detail was thought of and it was a beautiful and peaceful goodbye. I no longer live in Forest Lake but I am proud to have roots in a town that although is growing still has people with small town values & beliefs.

Dear Tim & Kelly
We sincerely thank you for all your help and guidance throughout this difficult time. It was our first experience in planning a funeral and we cannot imagine anyone being more professional or helpful. Between the two of you, we don’t believe there was one detail missed. Each and every part went off exactly as we would have wished. You covered everything!

The Myron Rohrbach Family
Many thanks to all of those who participated in the funeral of Norm Tolzmann. We will never be able to express the true gratitude we feel for all the details which you took care of and the respect shown in so many ways. The beautiful memorial tribute was so carefully arranged. The picture screen and music was impactful and meaningful. There were personal touches in the flower arrangements given and attention throughout the visitation, funeral and cemetery interment. Tim made writing the obituary easy, the remembrance folder and bulletin were nicely done. And communications with Faith Lutheran and funeral participates were taken care of. We were please with Norm’s “natural look” and the meticulous care which Tim gave him in preparing him for the grave. Kelly was amazing in his ability to anticipate our every need throughout the course of events. We especially enjoyed our visit with him at the family farmhouse the day after the funeral. We are eternally grateful to you for making the days following Norm¹s death as good as they could be with all your caring thoughtfulness and professional attention.
Sincerely with appreciation, Bee Tolzmann, Ken & Becky
Dear Tim,
I just wanted to let you know my Mom’s funeral was perfect in every way.
You did an excellent job walking us through the process to finalize the
arrangements especially when our minds weren’t even working too well at the
time. The funeral home facility is one of the best I’ve ever seen and so a accommodating. Thank you so much for everything.
