From the first time we met with Julia at the offices of A. W. Lymn until the funeral was over the service we received was professional but caring and personal. There was no pressure to have anything we did not want but we were pointed in the direction of what was available and introduced to others who could also help to make the actual day run smoothly. At a time when most people are not thinking as clearly as usual it is wonderful to have a lot of the stress removed by someone just saying "Don't worry. We can do that". I would recommend Lymns to anyone needing their services.

5Alex Keal10th Nov 2016
Dominic has been absolutely kind, sympathetic, patient, kind and helpful, whilst maintaining a high level of professionalism, whenever I had a query or sometimes just needed some reassurance.
On the day the staff from Lymms were very kind, professional and courteous too.
Thank you all so much
Alex Keal
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Mrs Keal, thank you for your wonderful words about Dominic and his kind, sympathetic and patient yet professional service. He has asked me to add that it was a privilege to look after you on this sad occasion and to see the chapel so full at Grantham particularly with people who had travelled so far to show their respects.
5Anne Taylor5th Nov 2016
My late husband had previously taken out a pre-paid plan for his funeral which helped me personally a great deal as he had chosen the hymns that he wanted and the scattering of his ashes. Following his sudden death Lymn's were most supportive and caring in every way and Dominic , in particular , gave me the help I needed at this time.
I have also taken out a pre-paid funeral plan and know that , when my time comes which I hope is not yet, I will go in the knowledge that Lymn's will give all the help they can to my family.
I will not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends alike.
Anne Taylor
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
Mrs Taylor, thank you for your kind, positive and detailed review of the service provided by our Radcliffe office and in particular Dominic. We are pleased that your late husband's pre-paid plan made the arrangements that little bit easier for you and are grateful to you for your recommendation. Thank you from both Dominic and I.
5Andrew Bucklow4th Oct 2016
Sensitive, compassionate, accomodating and flexible. Totally professional and highly organised to take all the stress out of the day so we never had to worry about the practicalities.

As a family we have really appreciated all the support and advice Brian has provided at such a difficult time, from the moment we all met him. The funeral itself ran smoothly and with the respect my husband so rightly deserved. We have all been grateful for the way they have sensitively looked after us, and the communication/contact has been excellent too.

Your services were extremely efficient,compassionate,understanding and friendly.Nothing that we asked for was too much trouble. I cannot praise the service we received too highly at a time when one is at one's lowest ebb. To every one involved may I give my thanks.u
5Peter Harrison7th Jun 2016
My father & I used AW Lymn in Ratcliffe-On-Trent to arrange the funeral of my mother. They were compassionate & caring & explained the process & all the options available to us. We used a "Celebrant" for the service itself who helped us put together a celebration of my mother's life.
I heartily recommend AW Lymn.
