From the first phone call following my father's death to being dropped off at the reception after the funeral, Andrew, Santanna and the rest of their team were wonderful. The level of compassion shown was just right and the way we were hand-held through decisions about the funeral was much appreciated. They made what was a very difficult time much easier than it could have been. Thank you.

Very comprehensive and professional service. We were particularly impressed with Colum Oshea who was excellent as a Celebrant and incorporated our requirements very precisely.
A.W. Lymn, West Bridgford Team replied
I felt privileged to have been asked to officiate this ceremony as I remember you and your family well Andrew from being the funeral director for your father, so to be able to see you again in my new role was lovely amidst the sad circumstances. Your eulogy was beautiful as was the video message from the Grandchildren in Australia. I am glad you were happy with everything A.W.Lymn provided during this time. Thank you, Colum.
5Helen Fowell 14th Jan 2023
Santanna and her team were brilliant at this sad time. From the start she was very helpful and followed all our wishes. Everything was conducted very professionally and myself and the family had no worries. The funeral usher Andrew was well organised and Gedling crem was a pleasant setting. The minister, Canon Reverend Wheaton was very approachable and met with us before the service, and made sure I was comfortable just prior to giving my readings. The family and friends were very happy, and we felt we gave mum a good send off.
Highly recommended.

Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review and for again putting pen to paper with the thank you card.

I am happy that together we were able to create a special tribute for your mother. All the best Santanna

Generally excellent - only one minor issue over a change in viewing at very short notice.
A.W. Lymn, West Bridgford Team replied
Graham, I am pleased to hear that everything was excellent for you and we were able to assist in giving Julie a fitting tribute. As for the last minute change in the visitation time, we do try and accommodate as much as we can for every family that we serve. However, in this instance, it did delay things slightly for you and your family and we do pass on our most sincere apologies for this. It was a pleasure helping assist with the arrangements for Julie and we wish you all the best, Santanna.

5Holly Saunders 14th Oct 2022
It's something you don't want to do, don't know which one to choose and you're not thinking straight but...
Lymm's was excellent, start to finish. The people who you deal with will keep in contact, guide you through the process and gently remind you when you need to do something.
Santanna from the West Bridgeford branch dealt with our sad passing and she has been very kind and helpful.
Thank you for making this most awful time a little less painful.
