  • 5 Christine Orton 12th Jun 2022

    We were delighted to have chosen A W Lymn to be mum's funeral directors when we initially took out the Pre-Paid Funeral Plan some 4 years ago. They were extremely helpful at that time and I must say they have been outstanding now that we have needed them to take care of the actual funeral and to look after our late mother.
    David's attention to detail is second to none, he explained everything very clearly and always with great respect and compassion. Nothing has been too much trouble for him and my sister and I are very grateful for his assistance.
    With his help and all involved at AW Lymn we gave mum the funeral she wanted and deserved.

    Sincerest heart-felt thanks

    Christine

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Team replied
    Thank you Christine for your lovely feedback. It was a privilege to have met you and to have helped you arrange a fitting funeral for your lovely Mum. take care, David
  • 5 Neil Owen 6th Jun 2022

    David and Team were thoughtful, professional and kind throughout a very shocking and Sad time for all. Thank you for the additional touches and also thank you to Annette (Celebrant) who kindly went above and beyond to provide a record of the service for Alisons father who could not attend.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Team replied
    Hello Neil,

    Thank you for your kind words, I know Alison was very special to you and I am pleased we gave her a fitting service. Remember I am always here if you need a chat and coffee! David.
  • 5 Jane Burton 3rd Jun 2022

    When dad passed away and Jonathan came to collect him, the compassion and care never stopped right through to the day we said our final goodbye.
    David was very helpful when arranging the funeral for us - nothing was too much trouble, no matter how many times we changed and altered the plans. On the day I wouldn't have had anyone but Jonathan overseeing everything. (He did such an amazing job when we said goodbye to mum) He ensured everything went smoothly and we didn't have to worry about anything at all, just saying goodbye to Dad.
    Thank you all for your amazing care and passion for what you do.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Team replied
    I am sorry that we had to help you again so soon after Mum's funerals but I am glad that things were as you wanted and that David and myself were able to help your family again bring together a fitting tribute for your Dad. Thank you, Jonathan.

  • 5 Julie Prince 13th May 2022

    It's really difficult going through practical processes while suffering grief but David Clarke from Lymns in Mansfield helped me every step of the way. Always patient and kind, David advised in such a way that the practicalities were easier to deal with and understand. I was so grateful that arranging Mum's funeral was something I could actually achieve at such a difficult time.

    On the day of the funeral our family and friends were all impressed with the service and how well it ran. It was personalised to represent our mother and her life and so very special to us. Everyone commented on how special the service was.

    I can only say thank you but it isn't nearly enough.

    A.W. Lymn, Mansfield Team replied
    Julie, Thank you so much for you kind words. It was my honour to help you arrange the service for you and your lovely family. Remember that I am always around if you ever need a chat. Take care, David.
