Our Dominica establishment is the story of opportunity grasped after an invitation by a former Prime Minister to set up a service in the Commonwealth like what is available in Barbados.
By 1986, there was no established funeral home in Dominica. That changed two years later when Lyndhurst acquired the operations of a start-up company and proceeded to offer Dominicans a high-quality service in all aspects of funeral operations.
Lyndhurst (Dominica) Ltd opened on 18 July 1988, and has since gone from strength to strength. The company has conducted all state and official funeral services, except one, since then.
A new building has recently been opened in the capital, Roseau, with what has been described as the best-equipped mortuary in the entire Caribbean. The building contains two small chapels, spacious office facilities, and comfortable accommodation for staff and customers.
All services provided by Lyndhurst (Barbados) Ltd are duplicated in Dominica, except for cremation. For this service, deceased persons are shipped to St Lucia. A repatriation service is also possible when a death occurs overseas.
