From our very first contact with Stacey, she couldn’t have been anymore caring and compassionate towards us a family at the most terrible time for us.  Every little detail was covered and handled with the upmost respect. They put is un in touch with a fantastic celebrant who put together a beautiful service for our final farewell to our loved one.  When the day of the funeral arrived, the gentleman arrived in the cars on time and they made sure we were all looked after and took the time to speak with us and explained all what was going to happen.  Everyone who attended the funeral said it was a beautiful service and we can’t thank A.W Lymn Mansfield woodhouse enough for this.  We would highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services.
