  • 5 Andrew David Hyslop 16th Dec 2023

    I recently arranged my late mum’s funeral with the Mansfield Woodhouse branch of A.W.Lymn and can only describe their services as being utmost professional from start to finish. 

    Max Whitehouse the funeral arranger was a pleasure to deal with from the onset. He patiently guided me through the various choices and processes of arranging the funeral. Max immediately made me feel at ease and was very straightforward to deal with, responding quickly to any requested changes. 

    Having previously used A.W.Lymn for my dad’s funeral, I requested Andy Askew to be the funeral director for my mum’s  and once again I was not disappointed, he was amazing! The whole funeral was flawless with everything running on time and so professionally delivered by Andy and his team. 

    The onsite Chapel was superb and fitted our needs. A huge thank you to Max and Andy for recommending it. 

    I have to say that everything felt like quality from the premises, cars, staff, orders of service, onsite Chapel and flowers. 

    Funerals are not pleasant things to have to arrange as it obviously means that a loved one has been lost, but wholeheartedly, I would recommend the services of A.W.Lymn without hesitation. 

    Thank you Jonathan, Max and Andy for all the help and assistance - you did my mum proud! 

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Woodhouse Team replied
    Andrew, Thank you so very much, your feedback means a lot to us. We’re honoured to have been able to support you during this difficult time and are glad we could make the process a bit easier for you. Take care of yourself, Max and all the team.
  • 5 Gail Fay 10th Dec 2023
