From the initial meeting with Laura to the final arrangements the family couldn't have asked for a better send off for our brother. The funeral was organised professionally, but more importantly with compassion, and at all times consistent with ours and late brothers wishes.

I would like to say a big thank to everyone at Lymns for the wonderful support both in the arrangements on the lead up to the service and on the day.
From the start Laura was extremely professional / supportive and informative offering advise and giving guidance when required. On the day of the funeral, everything went very well and everyone attending the service commented on arrangements and how out of the funerals they had attended our mothers touched them; directly after the service we released doves which was amazing and uplifting. Julia supported us on the way to the service and during, again, we felt 'looked after' and 'cared for' by the team at Lymns (a special thank you to Laura and Julia). Thank you to everyone for making our mothers funeral a special day which we will always remember.

3 years ago we used the co-op for our dads funeral,we felt completely let down by them & they treated our dad appallingly so there was no way they were going to have the chance to do the same to our mother. We decided to go with lymns this time,to be honest we were slightly worried as we had heard they were really expensive but they were brilliant from start to finish.
The only issue i had was how long it had taken to pick our mum up from the hospital,but as they explained that wasn't down to them it was the hospital who would give them a day & time to collect your loved one.
Every issue we had,they sorted it out,politely & professionally. They made sure our mother was still treated as one of the most important people in our lives whether she had passed on or not. We didn't like leaving her so the lady at the office on nuttall rd rang to say she would stay with her until the car came to bring her to the church,its the little things like that, that you want,to know they are still cared for even after passing & not treated like a"body". They treated our mum with the respect she deserved,treated us extremely well & the pall bearers,drivers & the head pall bearer couldn't find fault with any of them,hope we won't have to use them again for a very long time & but will definitely do so,i just wish we'd have used them for our dad too,i would never use the co-op again if you paid me,oh & also they worked out cheaper than the co-op was so don't automatically think that there out of your range,you could be pleasantly surprised & it is a family run business,& they are a really nice genuine family WHO ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT PEOPLE NOT MONEY!!

Thank you for your very kind review. I was kept fully informed of the situation in regard to the funeral of your late mother as I understand that you were given some misleading information by a third party and that Joanna at our Aspley office was able to correct this for you. I am pleased that our service proved to be what you hoped for and that the price was less than you expected. Thank you. Nigel Lymn Rose

This is the final stage of losing a dear one. Lymn''s ensure that the day goes smoothly and is remembered with fondness.
The quality of everything is superb. Every member of Staff that assisted with the funeral arrangements had empathy and respect.
It is the second time we have used the Company and I wouldn't use any other.

Firstly I am sorry that it has been necessary for you to require our services for a second time. However I would like to thank you for this kind review. We are pleased that everyone you encountered was respectful and are glad that the attention to detail by the team at Aspley meant that the day progressed smoothly for you.

3Rosie Gallagher 30th May 2016
Cars and hearse arrived at wrong address,no one knew who I was,we didn't know which car to go into.I approached the hearse to look at dads coffin and to find out which car I was to travel in.Arrived at crematorium did not know where to go what to do,the celebrant Brendan took me and told me where to sit,the family sat opposite sides to each other.when we should of been all together.After the service we were led out a different door.I was left not knowing where the drivers were,when we would leave,where I was going!Wasnt happy at all.
Matthew Lymn Rose replied
Miss Gallagher, as discussed on the telephone on Bank Holiday Monday and yesterday, we are sorry that you found the service of our Funeral Director to be less than you expected. Although we did not go to the wrong address, I accept that the cortege missed the turn to your street and had to turn around prior to collecting the family, and that due to the family bearers, piper and flowers you did not feel you and your mother were given the attention you required. Once again, our sincere apologies for these issues.
