4Alan Barrowcliff28th Aug 2018
Generally the service was excellent and very efficient. The only slightly negative comment was the timing of the funeral procession. There was insufficient time made available, which in turn created a sense of rush and slight feeling of lack of respect.
Matthew Lymn Rose replied
Dear Mr. Barrowcliff. I am sorry that things felt rushed on the journey to the Crematorium. Brian your funeral director tells me he had already extended the timings by five minutes, and as the first funeral of the day we could have moved the pickup time to even earlier for you had we considered we still had not enough time. Thank you for your otherwise positive comments, and I hope that this did not affect your lasting impression of the funeral service.
5Richard Dickinson29th Jul 2018

5Brenda Mayers1st Apr 2018
Everything was so beautifully done...the only thing we were a little disappointed with was the cards were placed on the incorrect flowers...was a bit delicate and did upset my mother, i had to rearrange them ... but everything else was done with care and compasion, many many thanks . Julie Buxton ( Victor Mayers daughter)
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
We are pleased that the team at West Bridgford treated you with care and compassion throughout and would thank you for taking the time to leave this positive review. We are sorry that there was an issue surrounding the cards on the floral tributes and I have spoken with the funeral director to see if he can recall anything about this. He remembers that the tributes were delivered to us from another florists and the cards, which were already with us, were labelled on the reverse indicating which tribute they were for and placed on the tributes as labelled. Following the service he was requested to move some from the main tribute onto two other tributes which he did. We are sorry if there was an error in this regard and that this upset your mother and would welcome the opportunity to discuss this further with you should you wish. Thank you.
5Lynn Williams24th Mar 2018
I would like to thank all who were involved in arranging my father's funeral - from your people who collected him the night he died (kindly offering me some time with Dad before taking him away), to Sarah who guided us through the funeral arrangements with empathy and kindness, instinctively understanding the kind of funeral we wanted for Dad. Julie was invaluable on the day, when emotion threatened to overtake me - her wise counsel to take deep breaths worked! It was a lovely service and made the sad process of bidding Dad 'goodbye' a positive one.
So thank you to all of you.
Lynn Williams
Chloe Lymn Rose replied

Thank you.
