Ewa Michocka - Lowthian 2nd Sep 2023

In what is the most difficult time in my entire life, the funeral director supported and guided me . Always incredibly compassionate, attentive. Nothing was a problem, highly professional and respectful. Responsive, regardless what time it was. They eased the load for me . Attention to detail was remarkable. The vicar conducting the service said that our funeral director was excellent. They made it possible to have a service we wanted. I felt that they looked after me and my husband. Everything worked well. They organised for specialist to deal with all music and videos and livestream of the service. The quality of it was second to none. And everything was done with utmost respect and care. I cannot thank them enough. In the times of pain and darkness it is good to know that there will be someone guiding you and making sure that I was ok . It wasn’t just about organising the service but also about each step all the way from the night I lost my husband. I would not hesitate to recommend AW Lymn . Thank you for everything you have done so far.

Carl Portass 26th Aug 2023

From start to finish they made this difficult time go smoothly, constantly keeping intouch with myself and putting my mind at rest. On viewing my late mum it was just like she was just asleep and the personal touchers were just perfect, as I hadn't told them entirely what mum was like. Emma and Dominic from start to finish were friendly and welcoming and I would like to thank all of the staff on the day.

Aileen Beet 7th Aug 2023

The attendants were excellent and very sympathetic to the situation.  They took great care carrying the coffin and were very patient and kind at all times.  I would recommend them to anyone who has to organise such a sad occasion.  They definitely made things easier. Dominic and Edward were very very helpful and attended to things and organised everything very well.   Thank you.   Tony would have been very pleased.   Aileen

    Dear Ewa. I thank you sincerely for taking the time to leave such a kind positive review. Feedback really does make a difference, and to read such heartwarming words really does mean the world to us. When we met initially it was obvious to me that we were dealing with a very special man, and it was only right that the service reflected what an impact he had on countless lives, as well as all he had achieved. It was an honour to guide you through a difficult time and knowing what a difference myself and the team have made has a huge impact on us. I know you were in Dominic’s thoughts on the day, and I understand he was able to watch the livestream of the service. Take care, and we will speak soon. Edward.

  • 5 Christine Roebuck 1st Feb 2023

    On behalf of the family I would like to say thank you very much to Dominic Lister and the rest of the team for a first class, professional service.

    From the first meeting with Dominic to the final farewell every aspect was carried out in a very respectful, sensitive, supportive and dignified manner.

    We were particularly delighted with the Order of Service design, which perfectly reflected my mum's love of flowers.

    Mum would have truly loved the tradition of the whole service, overseen by Canon Alan Haydock, to whom we would also like to say a heartfelt thank you.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words, it was a beautiful service and I felt honoured to be a part of it with you. I have also passed your kind words onto Canon Haydock. Dominic.
  • 5 Jackie Trolley 31st Jan 2023

    Arranging and organising a funeral is never an easy thing to do but Dominic helped, and supported us throughout. His patience and understanding meant that dad's funeral was a perfect reflection of his life.

    As a family we would all like to thank Dominic and A W Lymn for everything they did for us and for dad.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Jackie, It was lovely to hear all about Dave’s life from you, and to be able to write the service reflecting such a fascinating life was a real honour. Thank you, Dominic.

    Thank you for your kind words, I thought that the church service was lovely, and the team at City Flowers did a beautiful job of matching the main coffin tribute to the photograph you provided. Dominic.
  • 5 Guy Ashton 28th Jan 2023

    With all the complications with my mum in hospital, Domanic/AWLymns has been exemplary at being respectful and professional, when it came to my fathers passing.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Thank you for this kind review. I'm glad that all those who wished to attend were able to do so by you deciding to have the funeral on a Saturday, and I thought that the guard of honour from the British Legion and the Stormy Weather Boys were outstanding during the service. Thank you again, Dominic.
  • 5 Gary Franiuk 26th Dec 2022

    Was all good, Dominic was very excellent as he always is

  • 5 Victoria Wakefield 24th Dec 2022

    I was so overcome by the respect & dignity shown by A W Lymns staff. Dominic was friendly & so helpful. It's obvious that he's passionate about his job and goes the extra mile talking you through everything to make sure your loved one gets the send-off they deserve.

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    Thank you so much for taking the time to write these kind words, i thought the service in the village Church was lovely and it was so good to see so many family and friends together at the time. Dominic.
