Jackie Lymn Rose and her team, notably Sarah Derbyshire, helped us to arrange the perfect funeral for my mum Hether. All the arrangements were made very easily and Lymn’s were totally professional. The Order of Service printing was excellent, the usher at the service likewise. The contact with the Minister was made very easy and the flowers were beautiful. Mum was laid out beautifully and seeing her at peace was very comforting.Nothing was too much trouble for anyone. Jackie led the cortège with great dignity and professionalism and I cannot praise her and Lymn’s highly enough. Thank you everyone at Lymn’s.

Nigel Smith 20th Feb 2018

Lymns were fantastic. Very thorough, attentive and professional. Excellent advice and organisation. The speed of their responses to any requests and queries was amazing. My Father would have been very proud of his send off.

Nina Vaseer 25th Dec 2017

Thank you so much to Sarah who made the funeral arrangements so easy and a comfortable experience. Anything and everything was possible. Thank you.

    I would just like to say how wonderful both Sarah and Colin were during the funeral of my dad. It was most certainly the hardest thing I had to do but their professionalism and understanding made it a much easier process than expected. They were so kind and friendly and made sure that I was fully aware of everything that was going to happen and understood the entire process. A lovely team who genuinely showed empathy and support for me and ensured the process was smooth and we'll supported.
