    Out first visit was with Jane,she was so kind caring and spent alot of time with us getting everything prepared to detail for Aaron. Unfortunately Jane was on holiday so Julia took over helping us get everything sorted even playing 3rd party with ex family members. Jane came back and re took up looking after us and wow she got everything spot on and went above and beyond to make Aaron's day absolutely fantastic. Your team are amazing and have so much time for us the greiving family. The drivers off the cars were so professional. Even after the funeral we went to collect the ashes and once again Jane was so welcoming and took so much time out to check we were OK and offering advice. I'm so pleased we choose your company and fabulous staff to lay my son to rest

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    Tracey, it was such an honour to meet you and after the initial shock of our first meeting I am so thankful for the card and your kind words, Jane of course looked after you as expected and I am pleased that you and the family approved of the services your received from us. Julia

  • 5 Michelle Carter 30th Jul 2024

    From the moment we met Jane at Lymn’s she put us at ease. We were guided thoughtfully and empathetically through the process of planning our father’s funeral. Jane kept us  informed so we knew what to expect. The day was everything we wanted and needed to say goodbye and Matt was wonderful in looking after us all. The care this company took was exemplary and we would recommend them as a caring and efficient company, many thanks .

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    Michelle, I felt so blessed to be able to help you and Lorraine at such a sad time, and I am pleased everything went exactly as we had planned. Jane.

  • 5 Stephen Daniels 24th Mar 2024

    A W Lymn at Clifton were marvellous in their support and organisation of my Father's recent funeral arrangements and they made the whole process from initial enquiry to finally collecting his ashes a comforting and stress-free experience. Jane, in the Clifton branch, and Jackie, who led the funeral cortege, were genuinely lovely and caring; it was a pleasure to know that, under their guidance and organisation, everything would go seamlessly and it certainly did. During a clearly distressing time for any family they are wonderfully supportive and provided an outstanding service. I can recommend A W Lymn in the strongest possible terms. One always hopes one doesn't need a service like theirs but, when you do, they are a superb company to help you make the necessary arrangements. I cannot thank them highly enough and I can honestly recommend them as an excellent firm, well deserving of their 5-start rating. Many thanks to all concerned at A W Lymn.

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    After talking about Peter’s life with you I knew that Richard Marshall would be just the right person to take the service, and Jackie Lymn Rose the perfect conductor on the day, having know Peter from his flying days.
    I am so happy that everything went according to plan and the service was a fitting tribute to such an amazing man. Thank you, Jane.
  • 5 Julie Morley 5th Feb 2024

    From start to finish the service provided by Lymn's was outstanding. I would like to praise Jane at the Clifton office for her empathy, support and professionalism in helping the family through this difficult time. Nothing was too much trouble and all the family felt at ease to deal with arrangements. 
    On the day of the funeral Jane and the drivers all showed respect and reverence to the occasion but also kindness, humour and empathy supporting the family in a way that was fitting to the circumstances of the deceased.
    An outstanding service, thank you.

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    Thank you for these kind words, I was so happy to be of help to you and your wonderful family at this very sad time. Jane.
  • 5 Barbara Fairhall 26th Jan 2024

    Our family would like to thank Lymn's for the care and attention they gave us in organising the funeral for our lovely Mum. Special thanks to Jane who guided us through all the decisions with kindness and dignity, both during the planning and on the day.

    Thank you so much for your kind words.
    I am so blessed to be able to help at such a sad time. Jane.

  • 5 Lorinda Taylor 2nd Dec 2023

    We were very grateful for the professional, but sensitive manner in which the funeral was conducted. Everything seemed to go very smoothly and we have been very impressed with the whole process. We are very glad that both Mum and Dad chose the Lymns company to handle their funeral plan and it has been a pleasure to deal with you all (particularly Jane and Gary) from start to finish. Thank you.

  • 5 Melanie Johnson 29th Sep 2023

    From the first telephone call to collecting my mums ashes Jane could not have been more caring. At a very difficult time staff from Lymns at Clifton could not have done a better job. I would highly recommend them 

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    having know Gloria from her time working in Boots in Clifton I was so proud to be able to help with these arrangements. It was a perfect funeral service for a beautiful lady inside and out. Jane.

    Jane couldn’t do enough for everyone involved. 

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    Susan's funeral was perfect from start to finish and I was so happy to be with you Lee every step of the way, and to be able to help you at this very sad time. Thank you, Jane.
  • 5 Racheal Slater 13th Aug 2023

    A W Lymn helped to sort out my mum's funeral 6 months prior as well and I can honestly say that they always give a personal touch to everything and make sure that you are cared for and as much of your wishes are carried out. Unfortunately we couldn't arrange the 6 virgins to carry my dad into the crematorium like he wanted but he would have been very proud of the way we said our goodbyes. I can't thank Joanne and Jane enough for everything they did for both my mum and dad in such a short period of time between their departures.
    Thank you for everything.
    Racheal

    A.W. Lymn, Clifton Team replied
    I was so sorry to hear of your loss on this occasion, losing one parent is bad enough but to loose both parents in such a small time is devastating. I was so blessed to be able to help at such a sad time. My heart goes out to you all. Take care, Jane
  • 5 Karina Matto 28th Jul 2023

    Joanna was helpful, compassionate and professional throughout making the funeral arrangements can’t thank her enough and Jackie the same on the day

    Jackie Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you Karina, I was honoured to be present on the day of Leona's funeral service. Your meticulous planning came to fruition perfectly. The large attendance and lovely tributes at the service was testament to the popularity of your best friend. You did her proud.
