Everything was efficiently organised with gentle sympathy from all staff.
On the day, Russell checked arrangements at the crematorium and found that the words of one hymn were not the same as the words in the service booklet and quickly got this changed.
Lymn's provided an excellent service.

Russell was sensitive in his organisation on the day which understandably was very emotional for all the family. The celebrant, Malcolm expertly and sensitively delivered a beautiful service.

Thank you for your kind words. We are pleased to hear that the service we provided to you was excellent, it was an honour to be able to serve you and your family.
Part of my role on the day is to check everything runs smoothly, so seeing the slight error on the hymn at the crematorium was just one of the final checks to do but I am glad that it made things that little bit better for you. Russ.

5Alison Wright1st Feb 2022
From the moment I contacted A.W. Lymn in Arnold when Mum passed away the staff were courteous, kind and professional. Communication by phone and email was prompt and clear. Any questions I had were answered fully and I was never made to feel as if anything was too much trouble.
I was guided through all the preparation arrangements for the funeral with great care and attention to detail. I felt so supported through a very difficult and sad time
The service itself was carried out perfectly and left myself and the whole family feeling at peace.
Thank you to all at Lymn; Beryl, Emma, Russell, Vicky (the celebrant) and Pallbearers.
