Donna was amazing. She helped us immensely with the preparation of the funeral and on the day itself her caring and respectful attention to detail meant we could concentrate entirely on the proceedings.  I cannot thank her enough.

  • 5 Brenda Whale 15th Feb 2020

    I would like to thank the Lymns team at Beeston for what was a very sad occasion but made it much easier for us than we thought. Georgia and Donna were amazing and very profesional and dealt with so much empathy. My dad was 97 years old and he was a stickler for attention to detail and girls you certainly did that for him, even down to vintage cars he would have been in his element. Words seem not enough to thank you for the service you have given to us at this sad time, but I will say a big big thankyou.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for this wonderful review. We are really pleased to hear that Donna and Georgia's attention to dealt, professionalism and empathy made this sad time a little easier for you and ensured that the service was one Dad would have been proud of. Thank you.
  • 5 Albert Horriben 17th Jan 2020

    Unfotuately we had two family members who died very shortly after each other .It is testament to Lymns we used their services for both in each case we received a highly professional service. We were guided through the process with warmth and efficiency making for all concerns we had being lifted from our shoulders. Highly recommended.

    Matthew Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for the kind review, and the time and trouble taken to email us about Donna Conroy, who looked after your family on both occasions. Such kind words are truly appreciated, thank you.
  • 5 Karen Langley 5th Jan 2020

    The whole process could not have been handled in a more sympathetic, professional and organised way from our very first appointment. The staff in the office, the celebrant and the funeral directors and staff on the day were superb. It was my first experience of organising a funeral and I was guided through every step of the way. I cannot thank all involved enough.
    You are very special people.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    We are very grateful to you for this lovely review. We understand how daunting it must be the first time anyone has to arrange a funeral and so your kind words regarding how well you were supported and guided through this are very much appreciated. Thank you.

    We have found your services to have been efficient and compassionate, friendly and professional. We have found communication with you to be easy, with promised follow up always honoured. You responded to our requests with understanding, and we felt our father, the deceased, was treated with dignity. Thank you for providing beautiful transport, kind drivers and bearers, and for looking after our father and ourselves.
