    From start to finish of the process the team have been great, doing what they can to relieve the stress where possible. The actual funeral was really well organised by them, we felt confident from engaging Lymns that our Mother was well looked after.

  • 5 Holly 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.

    The Saunders family

    A.W. Lymn, West Bridgford Team replied
    Thank you Holly for taking the time to leave such a kind review and I am delighted to hear that the funeral arrangements were as smooth as could be resulting in a perfect send off for Paul. I wish you and the girls all the best. Santanna.

  • 5 sheila Maslen 21st Jun 2022

    We recently had a double funeral for my mum and dad who died three weeks apart. All the staff at Lymns were brilliant . We first spoke with a member of the team three years ago to arrange a pre- payed plan.
    The day was a sad time, but the staff at Lymns guided us through and made it a calm and relaxing day, with no dramas.
    All the team were were very professional and would highly recommend Lymns to others.
    Thankyou.

    A.W. Lymn, West Bridgford Team replied
    Thank you for taking time to leave such a positive review, we are glad we were able to assist and make the day as calm as possible. The pre-arranged plans reflected their individuality, especially the chosen coffins and it was a fitting end to be able to lay them to rest side by side in such lovely surroundings at the natural burial ground. Thank you again, Andrew.
  • 5 Tracey Coleman 20th Jun 2022

  • 5 Philip Lovett 19th Jun 2022

    Excellent service, managed by an empathetic and knowledgeable team. I had absolute confidence that the team knew what they were doing and when and had the best interests of our family at the heart of everything they did. The team at the funeral directed things in a professional manner and everything felt under control at all times which is reassuring for such an important occasion. 

    Matthew Lymn Rose replied
    Philip, thank you for writing in such detail about Andrew and the team who were involved in Mum's Service. I am sorry that I could not have been with you on the day, having known you, your Dad and your Mum for some time, but I am really pleased that my colleagues represented our family firm in the right way, and that the Service went in the way you would have hoped. Thank you.
