  • 5 Laura Allcock 26th Sep 2023

    From start to finish Becky excelled herself . We used the office at Rainworth , despite living in Pleasley ,  because of Becky and will continue to do so . Her patience and dedication to us meant the world at such a distressing time . 
    The bearers on the day of the funeral were really attentive too and nothing was too much trouble . 
    I would highly recommend this funeral director and all their services in the future . 

    Thankyou Laura Allcock 

    A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
    Thank you Laura for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. We’re so sorry that you needed our services again so soon after losing your dear Mum. John was clearly a much-loved man and we’re so pleased that the funeral service was everything you had hoped for. The custom coffin was such a fitting tribute to John’s love of cricket and music. We hope he’s found someone who’ll buy the next round for him! Thanks again, Becky and Andy.

  • 5 George Clark 21st Aug 2023

    A.W Lymn Rainworth, provided the services for the funeral of my late Wife Patricia.

    We chose them because they were the closest Funeral Directors to where we lived, we didn't know when we did, what a marvelous choice we had made.

    Becky and all the staff at A.W.Lymn could not have been more helpful compassionate and respectful and they made a traumatic time in our families lives as easy for us as it could be.

    I hope we do not have cause to use their services any time soon in the future, but when the time comes they will be our first choice. Thank you

  • 5 Tina Kocij 30th Jul 2023

    I can’t thank Lymns enough, when I met Wendy for the first time, she put me at my ease and went through a few options but wasn’t pushy, she told me to take a few days to decide what I wanted. Wendy also recommended a Celebrant Nick Sharp who was a joy to speak to.
    Becky was so kind and helpful too and very patient with me.

    On the day of the funeral Jonathan and his team were wonderful and so respectful towards my beloved husband, they ensured everything went smoothly.

    Thank you all

    Tina Kocij and family 

    A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
    Thank you Tina for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. We’re pleased to hear that you felt so well supported by all our team. It’s been such an honour helping you to arrange Orest’s funeral service. We loved hearing about his Mod days and seeing all the photographs of Orest in his prime. It’s great to know that Nick was the perfect choice of celebrant, and the service was everything you’d hoped for. Thanks again, Wendy, Becky & Jonathan.
  • 5 Mark Buttery 18th Jul 2023

    Very caring and professional services from start to finish. Thank you from myself and all my family.

    A.W. Lymn, Rainworth Team replied
    Thank you Mark for this lovely review. We were so sorry to hear that you had lost both your parents within the same week. Knowing that Dennis and Enid lived so much of their lives as a pair, their double funeral was a true representation of their love for each other. We’re so pleased that you are happy with the caring and professional service we provided. Thanks again, Becky & Tony
