Just what can I say. From the minute my son, daughter, and my self entered the office we were treated with the upmost respect and dignity. Nothing was to much trouble. They went along with our request. Everything went so smoothly fro. Going in that first day to saying goodbye at the Crematorium. Thank Emma, thank you Edward, and thank you Lymn.

Pamela Cave 13th Mar 2023

Excellent from start to finish. 

Martin Armitage 5th Mar 2023

I was very pleased with the careful and compassionate way the details and administration of the funeral arrangements were made. It was a very emotional and difficult time and Emma at the Radcliffe office was very sensitive and helpful.

    Just wonderful 

    Nigel Lymn Rose replied
    Sue thank you for your review on behalf of Jean, Jill and yourself, it is much appreciated. I am pleased that the team of Jane and Emma at our Radcliffe funeral home and our celebrant Richard proved to be such a help. As you are aware I had known Gordon personally for about forty years and although sad it was a privilege to be involved with his funeral. He was one of life’s true gentlemen and that was apparent from all the comments made by those attending. Again thank you. Nigel.
  • 5 Julian Rowell 29th Nov 2022

    Everything was dealt with superbly. I would like to say a very big thanks to all the team at Radcliffe and anyone else who was involved for their wonderful service through out.
    A big thanks from Julian and Gill Rowell.

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words, they really do mean a lot to myself and Jane. We both felt very honoured to be able to support you and the family through this sad time. It was so lovely to hear all the car stories you shared with us about Trevor.
  • 5 Lynne Brooks 27th Nov 2022

    The service I received from all the staff was very professional and compassionate. I could not fault any detail

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you Lynne, Jane and I felt very honoured to be able to support and assist you in arranging Shirley’s funeral and we are both glad that everything was exactly as you wanted. Emma.
  • 5 Pamela Wood 9th Nov 2022

    Was the perfect send off. She would have been pleased. Thanks so much

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words. It really does mean a lot to know we were able to organise and provide the send off you wished for Beryl.
  • 5 Sharon Hunt 31st Oct 2022

    Mum’s funeral was beautiful and Lymns worked with me so that we could have exactly the day we wanted. It definitely was not a paint-by-numbers affair and they even worked very well with the third-party carriage services we instructed, such that the carriage company commended the funeral arranger’s (Emma’s) “we can” attitude when routes had to be changed last minute so that it caused the family no added pressure at all. I had also experienced that with Emma and Jane at Radcliffe who I had dealt with throughout, who were superb, and Ed, who was the funeral director on the day, was equally professional, respectful and friendly all at the same time. In fact Lymns approaches everything with the utmost professionalism and you know your loved one is being respected from the moment they are in their care. We have had Radcliffe on Trent Lymns for both Mum’s and Dad’s funerals and I feel blessed we made that choice. 

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words, it really does mean a lot to Jane and myself. We both felt very honoured to be able to not only support you during this tough time but to also help provide the send off you wished for, for Gloria. The Horses and carriage really were the most beautiful touch along with the most beautiful decorations you personally made to decorate the coffin. Emma.
  • 5 Mike Allan 24th Oct 2022

    A totally professional service from start to finish. The kindness and support shown to us during this time was so appreciated and we can’t recommend the Radcliffe team enough. 

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words. Both Jane and I were so pleased we were able to support your family in providing the send-off you wished for, for Kathleen.
  • 5 Anita Shooter 18th Oct 2022

    I cannot thank Jane and Emma enough for their kindness and empathy for my son Toms funeral. It made a huge difference to our mourning for Tom. We felt so relaxed and able to talk about Tom as if they knew him. They went over and above for us for both sides if our families. They gave us time to make decisions at what has been the most tragic time of our lives. The day could not have gone better. We were even able to make cheerful conversation with our driver who made us laugh. The funeral certainly was not morbid and I couldn't imagine using anyone else. Thank you Lymms you were amazing x

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your amazingly kind words, they really do mean a lot to both Jane and I. We felt very honoured to be able to support you and the family in providing the beautiful service in our chapel. It was so lovely to hear all the amazing stories about Tom and his adventures. Emma.

  • 5 Lewis Wade 16th Aug 2022

    Very helpful and professional

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you Lewis for your kind words. It really does mean a lot. I’m so pleased that everything came together for the day of the funeral, and you could give your grandad the send-off you wished for. The narrow boat floral tribute was a fantastic choice with lots of sentimental meaning. Emma
  • 5 Martin & Linda Oglesby 31st Jul 2022

    Sadly this year A W Lymn have attended to the funerals of both my Mother and Father. They remained professional and respectful throughout, from taking Mum & Dad into their care, to arranging the funeral with Emma and on the day. They made this whole process as easy as it can be in such sad circumstances and dealt with everything to the last detail. Thank you all for your care.

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your very kind words, it really does mean a lot. It was a privilege to be able to support you and Martin at your time of need with organising the funeral for both Violet and Bob. Emma.
  • 5 Peter Keetley 26th Jul 2022

    I can’t thank A W Lymn for the care and consideration throughout arranging my Wife Eileen’s funeral.
    Nothing was too much trouble, and the Minister Christopher Wheaton was also very good.
    I would recommend your services. EXCELLENT Thank you

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your kind words and for entrusting me with taking care of you on the day of the funeral. It was a beautiful service by Father Wheaton on what was a beautiful day. I am so pleased that you were happy with our services and that everything went well on the day to give Eileen the service that you had wanted for her. Joanna
  • 5 Kieren Knox 10th Jul 2022

    From day one in an emotional time I was treated with kindness, empathy and professionally by Emma from A.W Lymn Radcliffe.
    I needed guidance and reassurance during organisation and I recieved it.

    My fathers funeral passed with excellent professionalism from all involved. I could not have asked or envisaged a better service.

    They all have a person centered approach.

    Thankyou

    Love

    Kieren Knox and family.

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your very kind words, it really does mean a lot. I felt very honoured to be able to support you and your family through this very sad and difficult time and provide the send-off you had wished for, for Brian. Emma.
  • 5 Paul Hinchley 9th Jul 2022

    We  want to thank Jane, she was fantastic.  She was really friendly and helped us with all our difficult decisions and made the funeral go very smoothly. We were stunned by how beautiful the flowers were.
    She arranged for Val the Celebrant to give the service. We were all blown away by Val, she went above and beyond. She made the service memorable for happy reasons and everyone also commented on this after the service.  
    We can not recommend Lymns highly enough. Thank you again. 

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for taking the time to pass on your thanks in this way, particularly in regards the flowers and the service provided by Val and myself. I am glad I was able to make this difficult time a little easier for you and I have passed your thanks to Val too. Jane.
  • 4 Niney Hartley 9th Jul 2022

    Emma Hutton was amazingly supportive and understanding she undertook all our requests without hesitation and made the whole process less distressing 
    There was a problem with our flowers a combination of florists mistake but also Lymns at Bingham accepting them when they should have gone to Radcliffe 

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for taking the time to leave this kind review, particularly in regard to the service provided by Emma. Regrettably the florist delivered the flowers to our Bingham office rather than our Radcliffe one and, although I know that this was resolved before the start of the funeral, I really am sorry that this added worry to this already difficult day for you and your family. I know Edward has since telephoned you to pass on his personal apologies in this regard.
  • 5 Mel Abrams 9th Jul 2022

    I couldn't ask for more they was more than helpful above and beyond everyone was really professional in their role 

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    It was my pleasure to be able to help you through your time of need and I am grateful to you for these kind words. Take care, Jane.
  • 5 Lesley Gibbons 3rd May 2022

    I have been involved in organising two funerals in the past twenty month, my father, November 2020 and my mother, March 2022.
    Radcliffe on Trent Branch has helped me with both. Jane and Emma have been absolutely wonderful and I can't thank them enough for the wonderful service they have given me. They are very special people.
    Both funerals were so well organised, they were sad but beautiful.
    Many, many thanks.

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Jane and I would like to say that thank you for the lovely kind words, they mean so much to us both. We both felt very honoured to be able to support you Leslie and your family through these tough times. Emma.
  • 5 Bill & Jean Julyan 26th Apr 2022

    There are not words that can express my gratitude to your staff at Radcliffe, particularly Emma, who assisted me with my husband’s funeral.   The care, compassion and attention to detail was so amazing I cannot thank them enough.  They took all my requests and wishes on board and made what could have been a stressful day into one that I was so proud of.  
    Thank you so very much. 

    A.W. Lymn, Radcliffe Team replied
    Thank you for your very kind words, it really does mean a lot. I felt so honoured to of been able to support you through this tough time and provide the send of you wanted for Bill. Look after yourself and if I can help with anything further you know where I am. Emma.

    Lovely friendly company.  As you are aware, and apologised for, arrangements weren’t as clear as have been in the past due to staff illnesses and absence
