  • 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.

  • 5 David King 13th Apr 2020

    Excellent and thoughtful service from Dominic and the team throughout the process. These are really difficult times for everybody and no more so than in dealing with the passing of loved ones, given that the funeral options are limited and personal dignity is being compromised. With Dominic's help we were able to arrange a peaceful and fitting farewell for our dear mother and grandmother and for that we are very grateful. Thank you.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Both Dominic and Teresa have asked me to pass on their personal thanks for your vew kind words. They worked along side Ruth for a number of years and they were honoured to be able to help you arrange the funeral for her. They are glad that they wee able to make these very difficult times a little easier. Thank you.

  • 5 Maria Carter 8th Feb 2020

    A W Lymn's have done many of my family funerals and always provide an excellent, caring service. My husbands funeral was dealt with in a very sympathetic way by Dominic Lister I couldn't have asked for a better service.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    We are pleased that Dominic treated you with sympathy and extended the same high level of service that you have come to expect from our family company. Thank you.
  • 5 Jo Balls 24th Jan 2020

    From the first phone call from Dominic expressing his own shock & sadness at Mum's sudden death, nothing was too much trouble. Endless people have said it was a wonderful funeral, if there can be such a thing. The Silver Mist looked the business & the old London double decker was brilliant in saving car use & provided a welcome lift of mood between the services. Dominic immediately confirmed that we could have the dog with us all day & provided company for her while we were in the Crematorium. I have just received a lovely folder with a Service Sheet,all the attendance cards & a list of attendees. Our family have used them for my Dad & brother in law's funerals & they have been brilliant at shaping the funeral to our wishes & budget where necessary.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    I am sorry that this is the third funeral that I have had to assist you with but am truly grateful to you for your very kind and detailed review and for your praise. I felt honoured to be acknowledged in the eulogy which Mrs Hodgson had written herself and want you to know if there is anything else I can help you with you are always welcome to call in to see me. Thank you, Dominic.
  • 5 Jason Smith 21st Jan 2020

  • 5 Geoffrey Tindall 29th Sep 2019

    From initial contact with Dominic to the service at the Sherwood Forest Crematorium all arrangements went smoothly to plan and the few people at the service thought it was appropriate and no one had any adverse comments. My personal point of view matches that of the other people and I am grateful for the help and advice offered by Dominic, together with his prompt arrangements  and consideration.
    G. Tindall.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Dominic has asked that I pass on his thanks for your kind words. He is glad that both you and others in attendance felt that the service was appropriate. Thank you.

  • 5 David Mason 24th Sep 2019

    This is the second time in four years that we have used A W Lymn in Bingham to organise a funeral. On both occasions, there were complex issues of timing that needed to be addressed to allow key relatives and friends to attend.

    The staff at the Bingham office, supported by colleagues from elsewhere, were models of efficiency and professionalism.  Perhaps more importantly, they were sensitive and caring in their dealings with bereaved relatives across a range of age groups.  We could not have asked for a better experience.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for your very kind words. We are glad that Dominic and his team were sensitive and caring in all their dealings with you and your family and that they were able to fit the arrangements to your specific requirements to allow everyone the opportunity to attend. Thank you.
  • 5 Andrew Clarke 13th Sep 2019

     These people are courteous and professional just at the right time when needed I cannot fault the service 

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    We are glad that Dominic service was faultless and that he treated you with courtesy and professionalism throughout, thank you.
