You made everything run smoothly and l am do grateful for your help with the requests l made. Helping me to be able to see my mam from my wheelchair and also keeping her close to me during the service I would especially like to thank the lady funeral director l think her name is Theresa. She treated my mam with so much respect.

Lymns made planning the funeral very easy and their professionalism was superb from the first phone call to them to collecting the ashes.

4Kim Skelton8th Jun 2020
Due to the current circumstances with COVID-19, we were not allowed more than 15 family members to attend my father's funeral. But this was no fault of theirs as there is only so much they can do under the current restrictions.
Everybody I have spoken to at A.W Lymns of Arnold have been very sympathetic and very professional in their manner. All of the arrangements had to be done by telephone or email but Ellie was always available to offer her support and understanding.
The tribute read by Keith Brown got my father just right, everyone has said how wonderful it was and how they believed that Keith himself knew my father.
Thank you so much for your excellent service you provided to me and my family.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for taking the time to leave this kind and balanced review of the limited service we were able to provide as a result of the measure implemented by Government. We are glad that desipte this Ellie was always available to offer support and understanding, and that all the team at Arnold were professional and sympathetic. Thank you.

5Graham Ashwell26th May 2020
Outstanding service, very helpful with every aspect of arrangements.
Nigel Lymn Rose replied
I was very sorry That Mrs Ashwell died but felt privileged that our family company was selected to provide the funeral. It is very difficult in these times with the Covid 19 pandemic and the restrictions that are placed on numbers attending the ceremony. Nonetheless there was a lovely âwarmâ feeling at the ceremony and the sun was shining which helped to slightly lighten the sad occasion. Nigel

Mum's funeral was just as she would have wanted. Sadly at this strange time only a handful of us were able to attend but the other members of the family were able to view online.
