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
Neville 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.

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.

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.

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.

5Antony Ivey 13th Nov 2022
At this very sad time we needed to have people that understood with the minimal amount of questioning and all the staff at Lymns were this. From the collection of my Aunt;s body in the early hours of the morning to the funeral day. We dealt with Georgia at the office who was very understanding and reassuring in regards to the wheelchair requirement for my Uncle. We were then visited at home by Kirby who was also with us on the day. She was so kind and explained everything in detail - also allowing for my uncle who can be a bit disgruntled occasionally and especially at this time when he had lost his wife of 66 years. On the day I felt the service was 2nd to none. It was professional and no ask was too much. Just what you need when you have other things to focus on. Thank you to all involved
A.W. Lymn, Beeston Team replied
Thank you Antony, for taking the time to leave your lovely review. I was glad I could help make things a little easier for Albert and support you all through this difficult time. Sending my warmest wishes to you and the whole family, Kirby.
5Gail Peach 11th Nov 2022

Thank you Gail

Many thanks to Lymn’s for making the arrangements so smooth and to make us feel so taken care of on the day. The office was very quick in replying to enquiries and to accommodate a change we wanted in arrangements, we would recommend Lymn’s without hesitation. Thank you all.

Over the last 25 years we have used Lymns for the funeral of both my parents.
They are consistently professional, kind, and understanding. Great communication and Donna Conroy and her staff were just everything we could hope they would be at this sad time for us.
They organised everything so well - I'm sure my Mum would have been so pleased with everything

5Carole Boyle25th Jan 2022
Excellent service from everyone concerned to make the day such a beautiful one to remember. The day was perfect, everything ran smoothly and efficiently. The funeral guide website is also excellent for posting photos, comments, etc. I can't thank Lymn's enough for all their hard work on making a funeral so memorable leaving everyone with a special memory and happiness that touched everyone through Richard's conduct of the service. If a funeral can be said to be beautiful this one definitely was. As a family we are extremely grateful for everything that was done to make this such a special day. Thank you.
A.W. Lymn, Beeston Team replied
Thank you for taking your time to leave such a lovely review. We are all very happy that you felt as though the funeral service for your mum allowed everyone to leave with special memories and happiness. If there is anything further we can do to help you please do get in touch. Georgia.
