The funeral of Peter Allwood was outstanding. Excellent service from all the staff of Lymn’s, all very understanding and compassionate, who immediately knew the kind of funeral we wanted. The family and myself will always be grateful for making a sad occasion into a day to remember. Thankyou so much.

We received excellent guidance and support from Deanna in organising my husband’s funeral. Deanna was very professional, caring and compassionate. She was so helpful with the order of service and dealing with the team at Sherwood Forest Crematorium. Everything went really well on the day.
I would definitely recommend A W Lymn in Hucknall.
E Latham and W Bexon funeral directors, both old established funeral firms in Hucknall, were incorporated in St. James House after joining the A.W. Lymn group in 1987.
The funeral home offers off-street parking, a reception area, two visitation rooms (which can be used together as a family suite if requested) and cold room facilities.
St. James House is open between 9 am and 5 pm, from Monday to Friday and is run by Senior Funeral Director Catherine Broome who is assisted by assisted by Funerals Arrangers Deanna Dale, Emma Hind & Luke Mellor.
If you need to talk after office hours or would like to arrange a more convenient appointment you can get in touch by calling the telephone number which is available 24 hours, seven days a week.
In the Hucknall office, Catherine also managers our pre-paid funerals provided by Ecclesiastical.

Michelle, One of the hardest things is to lose someone you love especially “your everything” as I could see Mum Audrey was to you. Wherever I could, I wanted to make your time spent with Mum precise, as precise as Audrey was. Big hugs Michelle. I bet she’s jiving now with Blanche. Deanna.

A.W. Lymn, Hucknall Team replied
It is always sad to see a familiar face walk through the door and it was even sadder when John wasn't with you Annette. Thank you for letting me again be part of the arrangements, although a little harder having known John and feeling both you and your daughter's pain. What a big character who will be very sadly missed. Deanna.
