Hide AdMourners will travel to Preston Crematorium for a service scheduled for 3.15pm.
The service to celebrate her life will then continue at Preston's Masonic Hall, where Rosie had worked as a sous-chef at the Masonic Hall just a few years ago.
Announcing the service, Rosie's sister Alice said: "We want the funeral as colourful as Rosie so we are requesting that all please wear something with colour.
"Any one who knew Rosie are welcome to attend her funeral, be that lining the streets of Village Drive, attending the crematorium service or celebrating her life at the Masonic Hall."
The community held a vigil for Rosie on February 12.

Hide AdFriends have also set up a Just Giving page in Rosie's memory in order to help support her bereaved little boy.
Alice added: "The Just Giving page has been amazing."
Benjamin Topping, 25, of St George’s Road, Preston, has since been charged with Rosie's murder. A post-mortem examination revealed she had died as a result of serious head injuries.
