At the most difficult of times Lymns were so very good. The staff were caring and friendly but very professional. They gave us time and were endlessly patient with us while we tried to arrange the funeral. They helped us through every aspect of the arrangements and made the funeral as easy as it could be on the day.
Thank you Natalie and Donna especially.
Mrs S Moore and family.

Donna was wonderful, Marion's Daughter Jenny is deaf without speech, Donna arranged for a signer to be there, the funeral and care before and after was super. My brother died in 2002, and A W Lynn did that for us, which was why we went back. Thank you .

Natalie who works at your Beeston funeral parlour was very helpful, nothing was to much trouble.
She treated my sister and I with compassion and understanding when arranging the funeral of our mum. We also thought Richard was very professional in making the day of the funeral run smoothly by talking us through the procedure. We were also very pleased with Chris Dakin the minister who conducted a beautiful service for mum.

The card on my flowers was lost and my flowers were unnamed at the crematorium...I’m still waiting for a call back as they are going to look for it (last Thursday). Was end disppointing end to what I felt was good service before then....
Matthew Lymn Rose replied
I am extremely sorry that you are still awaiting our return call, both Natalie and Richard have tried on numerous occasions and can only get your answerphone, on which we have left several messages. The whereabouts of your card is unknown, as it was definitely attached to the tribute at our office, but unfortunately once the flowers had been moved by the Crematorium it is very difficult to pinpoint where it became detached. I have spoken with our client Mr Spence to explain all of this. Thank you for your otherwise positive comment, Mr. Spence also described his experience as excellent. I am only sorry that Natalie has not been able to get back in touch with you.

5Robert Prentice22nd Jul 2017
I have nothing but praise for the way Lymn's handled my mother's funeral arrangements. From the moment that they collected her body from the nursing home where she died to the funeral itself, Lymns proved themselves to be supportive, understanding and compassionate throughout.
I have particular praise for Donna Conroy, who took me and my family through the process in a calm and compassionate manner, which was extremely comforting when we were going through the grieving process. She went beyond the call of duty in helping my brother and sister in law to arrange flights from their home in Spain so that they could attend our mother's funeral.
Donna also had to deal with some sensitive family issues, which she did in a very professional manner.
Once again thank you for helping us through this extremely difficult and emotional time.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Both Donna and I would like to thank you for this very kind and detailed review of the service she provided at that sad time of making your Mother's funeral arrangements. We are pleased that she was able to go over and above, helping you with travel arrangements and sensitive family issues, as well as helping you arrange a fitting funeral and supporting you with your grief. Thank you.

Donna at Lymns in Beeston, Nottingham was professional from the moment we met; everything was arranged, planned and delivered to perfection.

Many thanks to Adrienne, Richard and the team at A.W. Lymn at Beeston, who helped me immensely during a difficult time. The service was well organized with great dignity and respect, which was appreciated by all present. The streaming webcast from Bramcote enabled many distant friends and family to participate also, adding much value.

5Lynn Hazzledine19th Jun 2017
From the initial phone call Lymns were sensitive and professional. Our meeting with Adrienne to arrange the funeral was comprehensive and reassuring; she carefully explained things and took full account of my wishes. I felt fully supported and confident at all times and particularly on the day. Richard was superb at the funeral, looking after us and guiding us throughout whilst at the same time being discreet. I would not hesitate to recommend Lymns at Beeston to anyone who is unfortunate enough to be going through a similar experience. Thank you so much Donna, Adrienne and Richard. I will never forget it.
