  • 5 Dale Hall 4th Sep 2023

    Nothing but the highest of praise.
    From the moment we first made contact with Sarah at the Ollerton branch, we knew that we had made the right decision. We wanted a simple but special funeral for dad and Sarah was always able to help make that happen. Colum also deserves a special mention for the way he put together and presented an exceptional eulogy. A first class friendly, family business.

    A.W. Lymn, Ollerton Team replied
    Dale, Thank you for the lovely comments. I am pleased the funeral service we arranged for Dad was everything you wanted, including the selection of the Civil Celebrant. If you do require anything else, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sarah.

    When my dad passed away unexpectedly, Sarah and the team at Lymn went above and beyond for me I just can’t thank them enough. From start to finish they were amazing, kind, compassionate and so gentle with me while I was trying to navigate through a really hard time. I would recommend Lymn a thousand times over. They made a really confusing and difficult past few months just that little bit easier. Thankyou Lymn I will be forever grateful.   Jessica Priestley.

    On meeting Sarah I was Immediately put at ease and l felt she really understood what L was feeling.From the initial meeting to the day before the funeral l knew she would be be able to answer my queries (which she did on several occasions) The production of the order of service was immaculate and was a credit to the printer.Andy was the Funeral director and l was comforted by his reverence and respect and his caring made a difficult day more bearable.Even the gentlemen who fetched my husband were so caring towards me.I have nothing but praise for all the team at Lymn's
