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!!

The coffin spray was out of this world. Thank you Lymn’s.

    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

    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.

    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.

    Thank you for this review. It really was nice to see everyone out as we left the house and walked through Scarrington before making our way to the crematorium, and the family tribute film during the service was a very special moment that everyone commented on as we left the chapel. Dominic.

  • 5 Fiona Phelan 4th Nov 2020

    We cannot fault the service we received from A.W. Lymn Bingham when my mother passed away. From start to finish, all staff we met treated us with empathy and quiet professionalism. Nothing was too much trouble and this helped us cope at a very difficult time. Everything was done to make sure that everything we wanted for the funeral was made available. Our family's wishes were listened to with sympathy and acted upon with efficiency. Any queries we had were answered with clarity and we understood what was going to happen and when it was going to happen. We had confidence that the cortege and funeral service would be well organised which made it so much easier for us to be able to mourn my mother in the way we wanted to; we felt that she had been treated at all times with dignity and respect. We would like to say "Thank You" to everyone at A.W. Lymn, Bingham, for making things easier for us as a family in very difficult circumstances.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Fiona, it was my absolute pleasure to look after you and your family during this difficult time and I am really glad to read that the guidance and support I offered helped you to cope and to create a fitting tribute to your Mother. I am also glad that the information I provided beforehand meant that you understood exactly what would happen on the day itself so you were able to concentrate on the service rather than worry about other factors. Thank you very much or taking the time to leave this really kind review for me. Dominic.

    A. W. Lymn helped us arrange Sheila's funeral to ensure she got the send off she would have wanted. Dominic, Jane and Linsay were so helpful and caring at this difficult time. We can not thank them enough.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    It was an honour to take care of Sheila's funeral for you and it was amazing to see how many people lined the route from Garden Road through the market square and waited for us outside the plough to pay their respects as we passed. Thank you, Dominic.

  • 5 Julie Millward 4th May 2020

    I found myself having to organise my mother's funeral while the lockdown restrictions where in place. Dominic was brilliant trying to fulfil both my mother's and my wishes during this very sad time. Nothing was too much trouble.
    He went out of his way to organise the beautiful flowers for my mother, something I wasn't able to do during these unprecedented times.
    Everything was so well organised.

    Thank You Dominic

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for this lovely review, the flowers were a really nice choice and everyone who saw them commented. Even though we did face limitations I am glad that we still managed to provide a matching hearse to the one previously used for family funerals. Dominic.
