My brother and I could not fault the service offered by A.W.Lymn. Right from the very first phone call to Derek through to the actual day of the funeral in which Angela was so compassionate and professional.

Thank you Angela and your team you made us very happy that we gave dad the very best.

Angela talked everything through with us that would happen on the day leaving nothing out, so there was no surprises to upset us.
