EXCELLENT SERVICE - From the Start to the Finish. Everyone involved was fantastic. Everything run smoothly. My dad's send off was PERFECT. Everything I requested, A.W Lymn Rainworth sorted it for me immediately without any problems . I was kept in the loop all the way through planning. The bus was lovely, the signs on the front of the bus that I requested was lovely. The driver & Andy was great. Not forgetting Becky - She was so lovely, so calming and made me feel at ease along with my family. x_THANK YOU_x
