  • 5 Rachel Warren 20th Jan 2019

    Laura Fletcher is an absolute credit to your company. From start to finish she made this unpleasant task, bearable to complete. Her professional and caring manner was a true support for our family. All requests were met with compassion and at times shared laughter. The floral tribute and Order of Service were fantastic !!! Steve Wakeling who led the Service, delivered the words expressed by the family in a professional and friendly manner. Many members of our family and friends actually commented "Dad would have been proud and it was, in fact, a lovely day" THANK YOU TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE LYMNS TEAM.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    I am touched that you have taken the time to write such a lovely review. I am so pleased you liked the bespoke floral design and the orders of service, the fish really did look amazing! You are a truly lovely family and I am honoured to have served you throughout such a difficult time. Thank you, Laura.

  • 5 kuldeep verma 4th Oct 2018

    We lost our mother and needed a supportive and knowldegable funeral director to assist us. From the start we were dealt with like individuals and given excellent advice on the first meeting. There was not pressure to sign or do anything we didn't want.
    The planning was made easier with the systematic approach and also checking what the wishes of the family were to be. Laura at the Aspley Branch was excellent and catered to our Indian culture. Laura was flexible and patient,thank you Laura.

    On the day the cars arrived and were a fitting tribute to my mum. Nigel the boss was master of ceremony and he had a knowledge, understanding and deep respect of indian traditions. He gently and efficiently manoeuvred us into the cars always suggesting options and more importantly gave us time to do what we needed to do. Never rushed and always empathetic and caring. Thank you Nigel. 

    Overall Lymns has been an excellent firm to say goodbye to a loved one. They really cared about mum and the living relatives. 

    God Bless and thank you from the Verma and Harish family
     

    Nigel Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for your kind comments, particularly in regard to the support and cultural awareness provided by Laura. I am sorry that it was such a difficult day for Dad and I am only pleased that having plenty of time helped ease the burden. Thank you.

    From the initial meeting with Laura to the final arrangements the family couldn't have asked for a better send off for our brother. The funeral was organised professionally, but more importantly with compassion, and at all times consistent with ours and late brothers wishes.

  • 5 Deborah Le Sueur 3rd Apr 2018

    I would like to say a big thank to everyone at Lymns for the wonderful support both in the arrangements on the lead up to the service and on the day.
    From the start Laura was extremely professional / supportive and informative offering advise and giving guidance when required. On the day of the funeral, everything went very well and everyone attending the service commented on arrangements and how out of the funerals they had attended our mothers touched them; directly after the service we released doves which was amazing and uplifting. Julia supported us on the way to the service and during, again, we felt 'looked after' and 'cared for' by the team at Lymns (a special thank you to Laura and Julia). Thank you to everyone for making our mothers funeral a special day which we will always remember.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for taking the time to leave this kind and detailed review of the service provided by the team at our Aspley office. We are pleased that Laura was able to help you create a special and memorable service for your Mother and are glad that the weather held out so you were able to release the doves at the end. Thank you.
