A W Lymn were patient and considerate on the day of my mum's funeral, giving us plenty of time between picking us up, through the funeral service and the committal. The Order of Service and flowers were perfect. Message cards were even laminated for us 'last minute' before the burial. Thank you

  • 5 Alex Whitaker 18th Apr 2025

    Everyone at LYMN’s has been very kind and considerate from the moment they collected my father from home to the end of the funeral. Andrew, at West Bridgford, has kept us informed throughout, been happy to rearrange dates when requested, even checking we were ok when he was on leave and went through everything with us the day before the funeral. He couldn’t have been more helpful and made a sad occasion as stress free as possible.

    Thank you Alex, it was an honour to assist you to provide a fitting tribute to your father, I hope you feel that he would have approved and been proud as I am sure he would. It was clear by the attendance how highly thought of he was. Thank you again, Andrew.

    From our first meeting with Samantha to the day of my wife’s funeral Lymns could not have been more helpful and accommodating. 
    Everything was clearly explained to us and any questions we had in the lead up to the funeral were answered promptly and with great sympathy.
    The timing of the transfer to Wilford Hill cemetary was superb and the transport for the family was immaculate.
    I will have no hesitation in recommending A.W.Lymn, West Bridgford to anyone looking for a first class undertaker.

Take care, from Sam and the team at West Bridgford.
  • 5 Dayn Ford 18th Oct 2024

    I am heartened by the fact that the day could not have gone any better.

    The most telling sentiment expressed, that simply had to be shared with you was....."and that is how it should be done". So I thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving my mother the most dignified and gracious send-off that she whole heartedly deserved

    A.W. Lymn, West Bridgford Team replied
    Thank you Dayn for taking the time to leave such a positive review, I’m so glad that you felt that everything went as well as it could and your mother had a suitable send-off. It was clear to see how much she was thought off and the tributes were a testament to how loved she was. Andrew.
