The Cecil Wadlow Family established Wadlow's in 1922, located at 1225 "L" street, Lincoln, Nebraska. 

It was with great pleasure that Cecil Wadlow welcomed his son Richard Wadlow to the profession in 1957. 

In 1979 The Wadlow Family welcomed the Rod Rozanek Family as a partner and we became The Wadlow Rozanek Funeral Home. 

As years passed, and Lincoln grew we needed a more up to date and centrally located facility. 

On August 29, 1988 the ribbon cutting ceremony took place at the new Wadlow Rozanek Facility located at 5200 R Street.

 


In 2005, We had the prestigious honor of handling the arrangements for John James Exon's funeral. In his first bid for public office, Jim Exon was elected Governor of Nebraska in 1970 and was re-elected in 1974 to a second term. He served as Governor of Nebraska longer than any other person in the state’s history. Governor Exon marked a milestone by being the only Governor Nebraskans have elected directly to the United States Senate. He was re-elected to a second term in 1984 and a third term in 1990.  His funeral has the distinction of being the only funeral ever held in the capital rotunda.

In 2009 Rod Rozanek welcomed his son R.A. to the business as a funeral director.
