I went to Lymn's 3 years ago when my mother passed away ,I was very pleased with the way they handled everything So when my father passed away I decided to use them again. Everything went smoothly even with covid 19 to deal with. Organizing a funeral can seem daunting but with Lymn's to guide you can do it.

4Ann Jardine31st Mar 2020
Due to corona virus and age group due to attend, I am afraid it was a reduced service, 4 family members only. In very unfortunate circumstances and late change to arrangements, once again Teresa proved to be a wonderful asset to your company. With many thanks to Richard who too, had to alter service arrangements.
Chloe Lymn Rose replied
We are really sorry that the current Coronavirus situation has caused additional distress at this already upsetting time but we are glad that Teresa and her team were able to help guide you throughout. Thank you.
