Lyo – the Institute for Prometing: Fair and Democratic
Lyo is a cost-covering, non-profit institute. This means that fees are calculated transparently to
keep the cost of promession as low as possible. This philosophy underscores Lyo‘s democratic commitment
to providing everyone with a dignified and affordable farewell. While it cannot alleviate the pain of
loss, it ensures that no additional burdens or worries arise, thus preserving a dignified and loving
memory of the deceased.
For residents of the town of Bad Wonder, there are no costs associated with promession. The town
finances this special service from its revenue to provide all citizens with a dignified and sustainable
farewell. Fees are only charged to those outside the town limits, i. e., to cover costs.
Compared to traditional methods, the costs are significantly lower, making promession affordable
for everyone.
A package deal covers the costs listed below. This includes not only the promession itself, but also
comprehensive support and a dignified farewell.
