My family are all agreed that my mums funeral service, which was conducted by A W LYMN, were absolutely of the highest standards of professionalism, dignity and courtesy. Everything that they provided came straight out of the top drawer, it made a very sad day that much more easier to deal with knowing mum was in such capable hands. I would always sing their praises and recommend them to anyone who may ask it of me.

When David visited me to arrange Stephen's Funeral I immediately felt relaxed and comfortable. David is a true professional, he explained all aspects of the Funeral and exactly how the service would go. I cannot praise him enough. We had a wonderful chat even smiles and laughter which, to me, made David's visit really special. On the day, David was so caring and warm and friendly and attentive to me and my family, so wonderful. Thank you so very very much. Also, Nita. Thank you so much for explaining all the aspects of a Funeral and for visiting with your brochure on your way home. So kind and thoughtful. Thank you A W Lynn. I will always sing your praises. Many thanks and fond regards, Marilyn Marriott.

David and Jonathan are lovely and helpful. Or though we are still in touch with them because Mum's death was so sudden and unexpected.
Thanks so much for all you have done and are doing.
The service for my Mum was lovely.
Thanks again for looking after us and helping us through this very sad and hard time. Just a pity the coroner isn't as understanding and caring as Lymns are.
Thanks so much.
It means alot.
Thanks for looking after our special Mum.
Tracey Allsop.
