Very pleased with everything that was done for us.

Moyes Lorriane 5th Aug 2018

Jane and Brian have both been excellent throughout. They are professional, sympathetic and friendly We can’t fault the service we have received at this sad time. Nothing was too much trouble for them and responded to the many phone calls I made promptly and courteously. Jane constantly phoned to keep us up to date. Making sure we knew what was happening and that we were happy with the plans. When the day we dreading arrived it went so smoothly and if a funeral could be classed as perfect this one was. Thank you to Jane, Brian and all concerned.

As always service of the highest standard from Lymns. Jane (at Radcliffe) was so understanding, helpful and totally professional, Thank you so much, Lorraine and John Reddington

  • 4 Gail Pickard 13th Oct 2017

    How much was raised for Arthritis research?

    All the staff were brilliant, very polite and friendly.

    Chloe Lymn Rose replied
    Thank you for your positive review, we are pleased that you found the team at Radcliffe to be polite and friendly. I have forwarded your comment onto the team at Radcliffe and asked them to get in touch to let you know the current total for the donations. Our usual practice is to advise clients of the final total of donations received a month following the date of the funeral when they are sent to the charity on your behalf, this is because it is not uncommon for us to receive additional amounts during this time. I am sorry if this was not made clear to you at the time of making the arrangements but are glad that you found the rest of the service to be brilliant. Thank you.
  • 5 Gary Smith 7th Aug 2017

    Thank you for your positive review and recommendation. We are pleased that Emily and Brian were able to guide you through the arrangements despite the distance involved and are glad that you found them to be supportive and patient.
