Wonderful, professional, caring service.
Arranging a funeral for the first time can be quite a daunting experience. However, the help and advice I received was just fantastic. I can’t thank you enough.

Colum is a very kind, gentle and considerate gentleman who was always able to make time to discuss our needs and wishes. He went out of his way to help with extra arrangements we required for my husband’s funeral and wake. The service provided on the day by Lymns was excellent with Colum making sure that everything was as we wanted it and allowing us the time to do things at our own pace. I could not imagine anyone being able to do such a good job as Colum and his team both in advance of and then at the funeral itself. Thank you for making such a difficult time a little easier to bear.

The service was exemplary from the collection of John's body to the burial in his final resting place. The funeral itself led by Stacey Bentley ran like clockwork - organised, efficient and unobtrusive. Similarly, her professionalism, empathy and advice in the previous week was much appreciated. At a time of great stress and sadness it was reassuring to feel that she was well in control. Thank you.

5Margot Rhodes-Ellis8th Apr 2018
All members of staff have been so professional and supportive. As I have had to deal with arrangements for my Mum by myself, Darren has been especially patient and helpful as there have been times when I have been very much overcome by emotion with regards to making arrangements. He has gone the extra mile.
People have said Mum's funeral was beautiful and that she would have been proud of me, but I would not have been able to do it without the help of AW Lymn. Thank you.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for this lovely review. We are pleased that Darren's patience and support helped guide you during this difficult time and enabled you to create a personalised and beautiful service for your Mum. Thank you.

5Michelle McNamara26th Jul 2017
At such a sad time, I felt both my Mum who had passed away, and myself were treated with the utmost respect. Darren explained everything carefully, and tactfully, and we were even able to have some lighthearted moments reminiscing about my Mum. I felt as though he wanted to know about her and her life so he could provide the best service for her. Mum's burial was some distance away, but this caused no issues at all, and everything on the day was run exceptionally well by Andy and his staff. All-in-all, a perfect funeral for a perfect lady. Thank you so much for what you have done, and for offering continued support, this means a lot to me.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for your kind words about Darren and the support he offered to you during this sad time. We are pleased he took the time to listen to your wishes and help you create the funeral that your Mum had wanted and are glad that Andy took care of you on the day. Thank you.

From my first meeting with Darren at the Ollerton branch, our family has been treated with kindness and the attention shown to detail has been second to none. My Dad was treated with the upmost respect and the funeral cars supplied would have impressed him very very much. Thank you.
