Many thanks to Sarah and her team in Ollerton for an excellent, sensitively handled process from beginning to end in managing our Dad's funeral arrangements. At one of the most difficult times in our Mum's and our lives they were faultless. Would not hesitate to recommend Lymn's, Ollerton. Cannot praise them highly enough.

5Michelle Drury11th Feb 2023
We had to deal with organising a funeral from a distance which I can tell you is not that easy when you are trying to deal with the loss of a loved one. Sarah was kind caring whilst also being understanding and supportive in every way. Her guidance was definitely needed and very much appreciated.
Also we cannot thank the rest of the team for all of their support also, this also goes for the celebrant Colum who on the day made us feel very much at ease and did a wonderful service for our dad..
A.W. Lymn, Ollerton Team replied
Michelle, thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review, I am pleased I was able to help you with my support and guidance at such a difficult time. Sarah

5Cara Humphreys2nd Dec 2022
From start to finish the process was made easy, which is exactly what you need when going through such a difficult time. Sarah, the lady looking after our family, was absolutely amazing I can’t thank her enough for all she has done. She always made herself available at any time and we were never made to feel that anything was too much trouble.
Mark Andrew came to our house to discuss details surrounding my mums life and captured her perfectly when speaking throughout the service. Again he was fantastic and we would highly recommend.
Every detail of the funeral was exactly what we wanted and were never made to feel we should purchase anything we didn’t want. We were fully supported in all our decisions and would highly recommend A.W.Lymn to all friends and family.
Thank you so much for the perfect send off.
A.W. Lymn, Ollerton Team replied
Cara and family, it was my pleasure to help you with the arrangements for Mum. I am pleased you felt so at ease with me and I thought everything you did for Mum was truly beautiful and personal. Sarah.
