Valerie Mayor 21st May 2021

This is the third time I have used Lymns for a funeral and they were so helpful and considerate. Nothing was too much trouble and they guided and supported me through the whole process. The funeral was just what my deceased friend wanted and the little touch of giving everyone forget me not seeds was really appreciated by all the mourners.  Thank you Lymns for making a difficult time that much easier.

Alison Davis 19th May 2021

Very efficient, helpful and professional.

    Thank you for this lovely review. I have spoken to a few people since the service who have all commented on the lovely Forget me not seeds cards and that they have never seen this idea before. I’m happy the service was all we planned and that the balance was just right. Take care, Dominic.

    An excellent service at a very difficult time for my family and I.  The brochure made everything clear and in the circumstances it could not have gone any better. The staff were wonderful and we did my dad proud. Thank you

  • 5 Lucy Davies 12th Apr 2021

    At an extremely stressful time I was very grateful for the discreet and compassionate help given by Dominic in arranging my brother’s funeral. I was reassured constantly and made to feel in safe hands. 

    A.W. Lymn, Bingham Team replied
    It was an honour to look after the service for you and the choices of music were very fitting. Everyone I spoke to after the service commented how much they liked the Dance of the Honeybee. Thank you, Dominic.

    Thank you for taking the time to review the service provided by Dominic and his team at Bingham. We are glad that you were treated professionally throughout but are sorry that the government restrictions in relation to Coronavirus meant that you were not able to have the service you would have wished for in normal times.

    I would highly recommend Lymns of Bingham. They dealt with the funerals of both my InLaws and were so professional and accommodating. We thank them very much for making a difficult time just that much easier.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for your kind words, it was nice that you were able to have the service in Church as Mrs. Worley had wished and your choice of flowers was lovely. Dominic.
  • 5 Dorothy Fitzgerald 21st Feb 2021

    A.W lymn work professionally, they are outstandingly curtious and by far the best professionals in their line of work
    They are truly the best funeral directors in the world my dad had a beautiful funeral
    Thank you especially to Dominic 🙏🌹

  • 5 Linda Shirt 1st Feb 2021

    A big thank you to Dominic for his professionalism, support, patience and for good counsel. Much appreciated at such a sad and difficult time. On the day itself his attention to detail was spot on making the sad occasion as seamless as possible. 

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for this lovely review. It was an honour to be asked to look after the arrangements for Mrs. Staton and to follow them through to the service. Orston has a great community spirit and this showed by how many people came to follow us from the house to church on the day, the little seed cards and service sheets were a real success and next year there will be some lovely displays of Pansy’s to remember Mrs. Staton. Dominic.
  • 5 Beverley Mitchell 30th Jan 2021

    The two most important men in my life have been respectfully and lovingly laid to rest with the warmth and caring of this most professional company of funeral directors x thank you for making the most difficult time so much easier x much gratitude to you all xxx

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    It was truly an honour to be personally asked to look after the funeral of one of your family once again. Seeing how many people came out to see us off on our last journey to the crematorium showed how well loved and respected Mr. Went was. Thank you, Dominic.
  • 5 Lynda Binney 30th Jan 2021

    I felt really looked after from start to finish. Nothing was too much for Dominic and I am sure he went over and beyond for me sometimes. I am so overwhelmed at how smoothly everything went including a live web cast, that Dominic suggested to me, of the funeral on the day which meant that those who could not be with us in person could still take part. The Covid19 precautions were there in full which was good but also not so good as all the arrangements had to be by telephone which is never easy. Dominic and the other staff were really thoughtful and talked me and my family through everything when it was needed. I cannot say enough about how great the whole experience at such a terrible time

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    I’m glad we managed to find the right balance for Mr. Binney’s service incorporating the webcast and service sheets with the lovely pictures in. The flowers were a great choice and the colours really brightened up the chapel on a day that even the snow didn’t get in the way of a smooth running service. Thank you, Dominic.
  • 5 David Revill 27th Jan 2021

    Very pleased with your service.
    Excellent.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for these kind words. It was quite moving to see how many people lined the road to wave goodbye as we made our way from the house to the crematorium and listening to Rebecca’s service gave a real feel of the life of a wonderful lady. Dominic.
  • 5 Ralph Downing 26th Jan 2021

    A very empathetic and sympathetic service from first contact through to the funeral service itself. Nothing was too much trouble. I felt I was really listened to and everything was done to fulfil my requests and expectations.
    I beautiful poignant and respectful funeral service was delivered that did absolute justice to the life and work of my wife.
    Very pleased

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    It was a real privilege to be asked to look after Mrs. Downing and to work with you, Mr. Downing, in arranging the service. The personal touches like the slideshow throughout the service and the visual tribute worked perfectly and made the service very personal. Knowing how well loved she was locally and seeing how many people lined the street as we left the house was really moving. Thank you, Dominic.
  • 5 Michele Wall 24th Jan 2021

    As a family we would like to thank Lymns for their excellent service, especially in these difficult times. We felt very supported by their professional caring manner from beginning to end. 

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    It was lovely to see people paying their respects as we left the house on our way to Church and your choice of flowers was beautiful. Thank you, Dominic.
  • 5 Liz Toon 9th Jan 2021

    Dominic and the whole team couldn't have been more compassionate and professional at such a difficult time. Made us feel that nothing, was too much trouble.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    We are glad that Dominic made you feel that you were in safe hands and that nothing was too much trouble, and he joins me in thanking you for taking the time to leave this kind review. Thank you.
  • 5 Michael Roberts 7th Jan 2021

    Very helpful. Considerate. Informative. Relieved me of a lot of stress. Professional approach in the best sense of the word. Overall superb management of a procedure that had to be carried out remotely as I lived over 150miles away. Well done!!

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Despite the restriction in place due to the pandemic I am glad that we were able to still meet most of the wishes Gladys has detailed in her plan. I also thought that the flowers selected and little service cards added a lovely personalised element to the service. Thank you, Dominic
  • 5 Ann Clayton 26th Dec 2020

    A very caring and helpful approach from the very beginning to the final moments of the funeral. Dominic was so pleasant to talk with and everything was put together in a very professional way. Ann.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Mrs Clayton, It was fascinating listening to you talk about your brother and I have already done as you suggested and looked up his books about old Nottingham. I thought that he service you created was lovely and the music choices very fitting. Thank you, Dominic.
  • 5 Allison Mulvany 23rd Dec 2020

    Dominic provided a professional service with compassion from the onset. He worked with other staff including Theresa Spencer, FD to make dads funeral go as well as it possible could in these pandemic times.  The family are very appreciate of all staff at Lymn’s including Jo at the central floristry department. The coffin spray was out of this world. Thank you Lymn’s.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    I am glad that despite the restrictions of the pandemic we were still able to add many personalised elements to Dad's funeral such as the autumn forest service sheets reflecting his love of nature along with the feathers included in the floral tribute. Thank you, Dominic.
