Harry Pratt's Timeline
Died: 20130608
In the days after the death of our family member, we (like most families) were emotional, overwhelmed, and stressed about all that needed to be taken care of. Starting from the moment we called them from the Kaplan Hospice House, CR and Amanda took care of every last detail so that we could focus on taking care of ourselves and honoring the life of my father-in-law. The funeral home itself is stunning. The Deacon they recommended (from St. Mary's Church) was incredible - he took the time to speak to several family members during the days before the service so that he could speak personally about my father-in-law. The graveside ceremony was just what we wanted. There are so many choices to make, CR guided us through each one and made sure everything was exactly how we planned it. Several people commented about how nice the wake and burial services were. CR Lyons and Sons Funeral Home came highly recommended and I'm so grateful we chose them.
The Fariole Family
My family has trusted C.R. Lyons and family Funeral Home with our loved ones since the 1970's. C.R. and Amanda are the most caring, compassionate, real, down to earth people you could ever hope to never have to meet. Unfortunately, it's inevitable, but you could not be in better hands. When my Dad was dying and being mistreated in the long term care facility that had him and nobody else would help, I was desperate. As a last resort, I called C.R. and he got the Hospital to accept my father back as an inpatient after I had been told no, over and over. He then sent the ambulance to pick him up immediately. When my Dad died, he and Amanda took care of everything perfectly. I could not imagine that anyone else would have cared that much.
