Mark Collishaw at A.W. Lymn Carlton was excellent from start to finish in helping me to arrange my sister's funeral. He is so professional and came up with some good ideas when I was struggling to decide what to do with certain things. Mark is very personable and nothing is too much trouble for him. He even hand stuck 450+ diamantes to my sister's coffin and helped me come up with a bespoke design. I went to see a couple of funeral homes before deciding and none came close to A.W. Lymn. Mark, the Funeral Director on the day was also very good and they even arranged for someone to look after my sister's dogs because I wanted them to walk her in to the Crematorium. Mark Collishaw even took time after work to attend my sister's celebration of life at Colwick Hall because we wanted him to attend part of the day, as he had put so much effort in. There were a couple of things on the day of the funeral that were slightly disappointing (seats not reserved as requested which meant older family members were standing at the back as so many people came and the car used for family had minor dust layer on dashboard and window ledges). I also didn't have a very positive or warm experience with City Flowers which is a shame as they are part of A.W. Lymn and in the end I opted for a separate florist. However, overall I would not hesitate to recommend A.W.Lymn at Carlton and cannot thank Mark Collishaw enough for his support during a very sad and difficult time.
