  • 5 Terry Maltman 31st May 2021

    Donna from AW Lymn conducted Linda's funeral with quiet dignity and efficiency. No 'upselling' of extras, just leaving it to us to decide what we wanted. Steve Eustace gave a warm and friendly eulogy. I would be happy to recommend both of them.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Every funeral should be uniquely tailored to suit each individual and their family and as such we ensure that each family we serve feels free to select as many or as few of our services as they wish to. I am glad this was appreciated by you at the time of making the arrangements with Donna and would thank you for your kind words about both Donna and Steve and for your recommendation.

    It was a privilege to once again care for you, Patrick, and your family, but a great pity that it was so soon after the last time. Thank you, Richard.

Donna was also amazing, especially with Corey!! Thank you, thank you, thank you xxxxx

Despite my sometimes panicked phone calls to check on a few things everyone was so kind and understanding. Lymn’s in Beeston made the distressing situation so much easier to cope with. The whole family are incredibly grateful and would not hesitate to tell any friends or family that need a funeral directors to make a call to Georgia. Thank you so much

    We used Lymns for my dads funeral, we were more than happy with the professional, caring service. When my mum sadly passed we knew we could rely on lymns.  Donna at Lymns made contact with me remembering my dads funeral. She could not have been more helpful & compassionate, she kept me informed at every stage. I cannot thank her enough for the support provided at a difficult time. 

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Susan, Thank you to you and the family for taking the time to leave such kind words at such a difficult time. I know that very sadly you had two family funerals, the second taking place the day after mum's, so I really appreciate the time taken to leave this review. Kind regards, Donna
