5Laura Allcock26th Sep 2023
From start to finish Becky excelled herself . We used the office at Rainworth , despite living in Pleasley , because of Becky and will continue to do so . Her patience and dedication to us meant the world at such a distressing time .
The bearers on the day of the funeral were really attentive too and nothing was too much trouble .
I would highly recommend this funeral director and all their services in the future .
Thankyou Laura Allcock

Thank you Laura for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. We’re so sorry that you needed our services again so soon after losing your dear Mum. John was clearly a much-loved man and we’re so pleased that the funeral service was everything you had hoped for. The custom coffin was such a fitting tribute to John’s love of cricket and music. We hope he’s found someone who’ll buy the next round for him! Thanks again, Becky and Andy.

5George Clark21st Aug 2023
A.W Lymn Rainworth, provided the services for the funeral of my late Wife Patricia.
We chose them because they were the closest Funeral Directors to where we lived, we didn't know when we did, what a marvelous choice we had made.
Becky and all the staff at A.W.Lymn could not have been more helpful compassionate and respectful and they made a traumatic time in our families lives as easy for us as it could be.
I hope we do not have cause to use their services any time soon in the future, but when the time comes they will be our first choice. Thank you
A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
Thank you George for taking the time to leave such a positive review. We’re so pleased to hear that we were able to make this sad time a little easier for you and your family.

5Tina Kocij30th Jul 2023
I can’t thank Lymns enough, when I met Wendy for the first time, she put me at my ease and went through a few options but wasn’t pushy, she told me to take a few days to decide what I wanted. Wendy also recommended a Celebrant Nick Sharp who was a joy to speak to.
Becky was so kind and helpful too and very patient with me.
On the day of the funeral Jonathan and his team were wonderful and so respectful towards my beloved husband, they ensured everything went smoothly.
Thank you all
Tina Kocij and family
A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
Thank you Tina for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. We’re pleased to hear that you felt so well supported by all our team. It’s been such an honour helping you to arrange Orest’s funeral service. We loved hearing about his Mod days and seeing all the photographs of Orest in his prime. It’s great to know that Nick was the perfect choice of celebrant, and the service was everything you’d hoped for. Thanks again, Wendy, Becky & Jonathan.

5Angela Burbanks7th Jul 2023
To be honest, I chose A W Lymn at Rainworth because they were conveniently sited. Little did I know then how well I had chosen! Becky was a 'star'. She explained all the services available to me in detail ( including costs) at a time when I could barely think straight. I was able to make my choices online ( which suited me) knowing that Becky was always at the end of the phone should I need to talk face to face. Everything with the actual funeral went really well on the day. The cars arrived bang on time and the staff were very helpful and thoughtful. Absolute professionals!! Dad couldn't have had a better send off. Thank you A W Lymn!!!!!
A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
Thank you Angela for this wonderful review. We’re so pleased that the funeral service was everything you had hoped for. It’s been such a pleasure working with you to plan and provide Haydn with a send-off he would have been proud of. We’re happy to hear that our help and guidance made this difficult time a little bit easier for you. Thanks again, Becky and Andy.
5Alan Brown2nd Jul 2023
My family and I would like to take the opportunity to thank Becky Hogg and Jonathan Baker for the excellent service they provided with my late wife's funeral. Both went over and above to ensure that our wishes were followed to the letter and everyone who attended gave us so much positive feedback. I am so impressed with the quality of AW Lymns that I am now contemplating taken out a funeral plan for myself. I do not have enough words to praise the team at Lymns, my wife looked amazing in the chapel of rest, she looked so good I found myself looking to see if her chest would rise and fall. Thank you all for the professionalism and care extended to my family. Alan Brown.
A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
Thank you Alan for this lovely review. We’re so pleased you are happy with everything we did to help you at such a difficult time.
