Flynns Funeral Directors Athlone

Flynns Funeral Directors is a family run Funeral care business. Flynns Funeral Directors prides itself in providing a bespoke funeral service.

Flynns of Athlone is a family owned and managed Funeral care business which was established in Athlone in the 1961. Throughout the years Flynns Funeral Directors has built a reputation for the quality and dignity with which they carry out the funeral service. At Flynn’s we aim to deliver a personal and caring service providing both traditional and contemporary funerals for all denominations. We take responsibility for ensuring that every aspect of the funeral is organized and carried out in keeping with both religious and personal preferences. As part of our commitment to the care of the deceased, we offer and recommend the service of embalming. We also specialise in the international repatriation of remains from overseas to Ireland and from Ireland overseas as well as ‘pre-planned’ funerals and other funeral related services.
