Very attentive and helpful. Caring. They have all the time in the world for you and nothing is too much trouble.

Elaine Fulton 20th Oct 2022

It is difficult to put into words our experince as a family but, here we go! Our Dad was transported from home to Lymns Nuthall Road and as a family we made the right choice. From the outset Jahnet was welcoming & extremely helpful. Jahnet called & introduced herself and said that she was looking after Dad and following a brief discussion we arranged to come into the office the following day. Jahnet explained that we would need to obtain 'the green certficate' from the Coroner as soon as possible as this would help smooth the process of arranging the burial but, unbeknown to us our GP didnt follow the correct procedure. Thank goodness Jahnet was there to guide us and chase the GP to get the correct information to the Coroner in a timely manner. From the initial meeting with Jahnet to the day of the funeral Jahnet held our hands. You can tell that she genuinely cares for her customers. She was truly just amazing and we cannot thank her enough. She is a great asset to Lymns. We would also like to thank the funeral Director on the day Teresa. It was just amazing how she got my grandson to play a pivotal role in the funeral as the flag bearer. So unexpected but wonderful. We as a family just want to express our gratitude for the wonderful customer service

Fantastic service from start to finish. Jahnet was professional,  kind and caring and kept in touch throughout the whole process. She also gives great hugs. The funeral itself was led with great compassion and serenity by Jackie. Highly recommend

  • 5 Marceline Powell 7th Feb 2022

    What can I say. A massive massive thank you to Jahnet Wilks for your caring support, your empathy and understanding and your determination to help us create the perfect day for Karl. I was terrfified when I was tasked with organising this mammoth funeral, but Jahnet stayed in touch, listened, communicated and was always one step ahead of any potential problems. I'm crying as I write this because I cannot thank her enough. I was in the second family car, and didn't get the name of our driver but he was amazing, respectful but joined in our humour and made us so comfortable, chatting to Karls boys and making sure we were comfortable. And thank you to Nigel for your care, your attention to detail and your personal touch. Your staff are a credit to your company and as Karl's family we want to extend our gratitude for helping us organise the perfect funeral for our precious Karl. Finally, the horses continue to take my breath away. Thank you thank you thank you. Marceline Powell.

    Nigel Lymn Rose replied
    I am very grateful to you for taking the time to leave this wonderful review. I am glad that Jahnet offered great support and was attentive to all your requirements and I am pleased that my attendance on the day was appreciated. The tributes to Karl were interesting to hear and showed what an amazing life he had lived and how much he had done for his community in Nottingham. Once again thank you. Nigel Lymn Rose.

  • 5 Andrina Louis 31st Oct 2021

    Although you were recommend to us, we still decided to call around before deciding to choose your services; what a waste of time that was!   We chose Lymn’s because we found the website really useful and before even making contact we had a good idea of what we wanted for thee funeral an an idea of cost.   The first telephone conversation was extremely helpful and informative, (which is just what you need when you don’t have experience of arranging funerals).  We were grateful for the guidance provided by the Funeral Arranger, who also kept us updated throughout the process and helped to accommodate our cultural needs.   More importantly, mum’s body was treated with dignity and care.  At the cemetery the Pallbearers went that extra mile by making sure my disabled uncle could get to the graveside. One of them even helped with the backfilling, (which I will never forget).  Lymn’s overall professional and sensitive approach ensured that my mum was given a beautiful and dignified funeral.

    Nigel Lymn Rose replied
    We really are appreciative of you taking the time to leave this very kind and detailed review of all stages of the service provided by our family company. It is good to know that we were initially recommended to you and that the service then provided proved that this recommendation was founded. We strive to do all we can to provide helpful and informative guidance and to care for all those in attendance on the day and we are glad that this was appreciated by you. Once again thank you.
  • 5 Jane Harris 29th Sep 2021

    I am lost for words on reading this wonderful review. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I am truly grateful that I was able to support you and your family through this sad time. Jahnet.

  • 5 Helena Scrimshaw 2nd Mar 2021

    Excellent service... from our very first visit to arrange our dads funeral service to the very end the attention to detail was spot on. We can’t thank you enough for all your support shown throughout this difficult time....  Love from the “Askey”family xxx 

    Nigel Lymn Rose replied
    Having known Alan for so many years I was saddened by his death but felt privileged to be involved on the day of his funeral. I thought that the show of friendship and support outside his hotel was very touching and it was so appropriate that the funeral cortege was led by the two “Mods on Scooters”. I am pleased that the service provided by our staff and in particular Deanna and Joyce proved helpful at this sad time. They join me in thanking you for this review, Nigel.
