We didn't need to think about anything on the day of the funeral it was all taken care of with an extreme amount of thoughtfulness. The planning of the funeral itself was dealt with by Georgia in an extremely caring and respectful manner, we couldn't have asked for anything else.

5Lisa Ward21st Nov 2023
Absolutely amazing from start to finish. Nothing we asked for big or small was a problem. Lymn’s made the process of organising the funeral easy, they weren’t pushy in any way. They gave advice when needed and treated the family with respect and kindness. My mum had a beautiful send off and we had many comments from guests praising the funeral. Couldn’t have asked for any thing more. Thank you.
From The Ward family.
A.W. Lymn, Beeston Team replied

5Philip Darby 29th May 2023
There is not a single criticism that I could make about Lymns Funeral Services. The way they carried out, what for the family, was an emotional occasion, with such professional, compassionate yet personable performance was second to none.
I cannot praise them highly enough.

5Philip Robinson7th Feb 2023
We have found Lymns to manage the difficult balance of being both caring and professional really well. They have a compassionate manner and are flexible and very well organised - helping the bereaved to navigate through unfamiliar areas at at a sensitive time. Every action in the planning of a funeral is made clear and followed up so that nothing is left outstanding for the time of the actual funeral. We would recommend them unreservedly.
A.W. Lymn, Beeston Team replied
I'm sorry you have needed my services again so quickly but I am grateful to you for once again entrusting me with taking care of you through this difficult time. Thank you, Donna.

4Mark Shouler2nd Dec 2022
All excellent, a little more information on how the days event would take place would have been a bit more helpful, but great other than that thank you very much
Nigel Lymn Rose replied
Thank you for your overall excellent review, it is much appreciated. I am sorry that you feel that insufficient information was given about how the days events would take place. You will recall that I spent a considerable amount of time the day before the funeral talking through the events but on the day the beautiful eulogies by the family took considerably longer than had been anticipated by either myself or the Minister, and as you are aware I made arrangements for the service to overrun by upwards of half an hour and for us to arrive late at the crematorium. I had not covered this in our previous discussions as of course I had no idea until during the service that the original timetable was not going to be met. Once again thank you for your generally high appraisal.
5Neville Davies26th Nov 2022
Kind and considerate even through some difficulties with the church. We used A W Lymn for our father's funeral 11 years ago and we're pleased to say that they were just as good for our Mother's recent funeral.
A.W. Lymn, Beeston Team replied
Thank you for this kind review. I am glad that I was able to get the date arranged with the Church for you before I went away and am pleaded that you were well looked after on the day. Donna.
5Helen Fessey18th Nov 2022
Donna & her team were incredible in the initial few days after Mum’s passing. She was very compassionate, kind and sensitive to our needs & kept our family calm throughout. She continued to help us in the run up to mum’s funeral, taking care of all the admin jobs that needed to be done. We couldn’t have done it without Donna by our side and I certainly felt very comforted by having her with us at mum’s funeral day too.
A.W. Lymn, Beeston Team replied
Thank you for your kind words, it was my pleasure to look after you all and I am glad that my support gave you comfort. Donna.
