Wendy at Lymn Rainworth was excellent. She answered every question we had and even the ones we didn't know we had. She is an expert at her job, makes a good tray of tea and biscuits and genuinely cares for her clients.

We dealt with the branch at Rainworth, Nottinghamshire and Wendy who was dealing with us was very compassionate and very professional. The funeral on the day went very smoothly and nothing was too much trouble. Jonathan who was leading the funeral went out of the way to go to some woods where my Husband and myself went to everyday to walk our dog.

Chloe Lymn Rose replied

We are glad that Wendy treated you with compassion and that nothing was too much trouble for her to sort for you. We are also pleased that the route taken by Jonathan meant so much to you and personalised the journey. Thank you also for taking the time to leave this review.

From the first visit to Wendy to make arrangements everybody was so kind and considerate - I know it's their job - but they all went above and beyond. When I called in to hand in more donations I was handed a Memory Box which I and my family thought was a lovely gesture, which I shall keep and treasure. Thanking everyone concerned you made a sad day a little easier to handle

Chloe Lymn Rose replied

Thank you for your kind words. We are pleased that Wendy and her team looked after you and your grand-daughter so well during the arrangements and are glad that you like the memory box.

Both David and Wendy are amazing. After two bereavements within a month, they helped, supported and guided the family through the process. They were thoughtful and kind and I will be forever in their debt. They helped create a day that we will remember. Would highly recommend to all and I am sure our paths will cross again.

What can I say excellent service from start to finish David is amazing at every aspect of his job and made a difficult time more bearable would definitely recommend in the future. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart
5 Maria Crangle 17th May 2018

Wonderful service especially as it took so long for us to be able to start planning the funeral. Wendy was very caring and calm which enabled us to make the decisions quickly and easily about how we wanted to celebrate our dads passing. Concerns over how my brothers and nephew would cope being pallbearers were alleviated straight away by Wendy by knowing that even on the day and at the last moment there would be members of their team available if my family felt they could not carry my dad to his final resting place. David was great and explained on the day how the procession and carrying my dad would happen ensuring the safety off all included and the wonderful touch of matching his tie to the colours on my dads flowers was lovely. I can not thank Wendy and David enough for making the planning and the final steps so easy at such a difficult time. Thank you
5 Michelle Etchells 27th Feb 2018

5 Kathy Hayes 5th Sep 2017

We couldn't have asked for a better service from start to finish. Nothing was ever to much trouble and we cant thank you enough.
5 Wendy Baker 22nd Jul 2017

Wendy and David were really helpful at a time of great upset after the sudden death of our dad. Their professionalism made a terrible job much easier and we will be forever grateful for the kindness shown by all the staff from collecting dad on the day of his death, right up until leaving him at the crematorium after the service at the church.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you arrange a funeral?

You can arrange a funeral by choosing a funeral director who will help you organise all of the details. They can help you decide whether to have a cremation or burial and what type of service to choose, as well as additional options, such as music and flowers. You can find out what happens at a funeral and compare funeral directors on Funeral Guide.

What are disbursements?

Disbursements are additional costs for a funeral service that are paid to third-parties, such as florists, celebrants and burial fees. The funeral director will usually charge you for them and then pay the suppliers themselves.

How can I get help with funeral costs?

If the cost of a funeral is not covered by a prepaid funeral plan, or the estate of the person who has died, you may be able to get financial help from the government’s Bereavement Support Payment or from War Disablement Pensions, charitable funds or budgeting loans.
