Looked after dad with such grace and dignity. On the day of dad's funeral Russel who looked after us was so nice, they bought dad home and did a drive by his place of work, they did so much and made a very hard day into a beautiful one.

We felt we were in very capable hands. From beginning to end you guided us through every step and so on the day of the funeral everything ran so smoothly.
We would certainly recommend your first class service.

I am so pleased that the service we provided to you was the best it could be for a hard day. It was great to see at least 120 people at the service which proved that Trevor was such a popular and well respected man and I thought the inclusion of the VW campervan hearse really personalised the service. Thank you, Russ.

5John Landon29th Oct 2021
The only comment we would like to make is attention to detail when dressing... mum's buttons on her cardigan were not buttoned up properly which I had to address as she was a very meticulous dresser.. just a point to think on for future reference, apart from that everything was perfect.. thank you.. staff very helpful and kind
A.W. Lymn, Arnold Team replied
We are pleased that you thought all went perfect with the service we provided for the funeral, other than the buttons on the cardigan of course. We are sorry that you felt disappointed with this. We have taken this on board for the future so thank you for this constructive feedback. Russ.

5Linda Scott12th Oct 2021
The service provided by Lymns was excellent, a date was arranged with a quick turn around and whilst initially I worried whether everything would be sorted in time, it soon became clear that everything was under control. The teamwork shown on the day was second to none and each member of staff involved played their part respectfully. The celebrant suggested (Anja) was professional and the perfect person for the job. Thanks to everyone involved on the day including Emma and Beryl.
A.W. Lymn, Arnold Team replied
Thank you for such lovely words for the team at Arnold and I am glad you were happy with the choice of celebrant. Emma
