5Lynn Elaine Desforges20th Jul 2018
Cannot fault anything about them, from our first phone call the service from Lymn at Mansfield Woodhouse was outstanding.
Special mention must go to Jonathon W. Baker who was so respectful and diligent, an attentive genuine professional who is an absolute credit to himself & this family business. Nothing was too much trouble; everything was dealt with in a respectful sensitive manner from Jonathon.
A particular mention to Elaine who was so kind and supportive at every step ensuring we were all taken care of.
All the staff went out of their way to make sure everything was just how we wanted it, a thank you also to include Ben & Mark.
The drivers & cars too were immaculate and the standard and professionalism of the team was just truly exceptional on the day. At such a sad time the care shown to Marion, our Mum & Gran, was truly memorable for us. Thank you to one and all for taking care of us.
We highly recommend A. W. Lymn, we would ask them to provide the funeral services to our loved ones in the future.
A. W. Lymn, you can be exceptionally proud of the amazing team you have at Mansfield Woodhouse.
Lynn Desforges & family
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
From the initial contact to the completion of the funeral you and your family were a pleasure to serve.
On behalf of Elaine, myself and all the team that made the funeral happen, we thank you for your kind comments and are glad that the funeral was a fitting tribute to Mrs Smedley.
I will always remember with a smile the music that we left the crematorium chapel to, which was the theme tune to Mrs Smedleyâs favourite television programme, (if you want to know what it is, to paraphrase the famous Home Guard Captain, the answer would be âDonât tell âem Jonathanâ)
It is always very gratifying when a family takes the time, at such a difficult period in their lives to thank us, and it is greatly appreciated.
Jonathan.
