What families say

"Nothing was too much trouble and Jessica remained professional, compassionate and considerate to our feelings and needs. From start to finish, the process was flawless and for this we as a family are eternally grateful."

— A M (about Jessica)

"Mark showed nothing but absolute professionalism, care and compassion, and I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to have dealt with the arrangements for my grandma's funeral. I was dreading attending the meeting with the funeral director, but as soon as we stepped into the building, we were made to feel at ease."

— Emma Gray da Silva (about Mark)

"I lost my husband on 24/04/2023. Jessica, Paul and Mark were amazing. They supported me throughout and guided me in the planning of what turned out to be an amazing send off for my husband. Massive shout out to Jessica especially — she was an absolute superstar."

— Angela Waddingham (about Jessica)

"Mark, the funeral director on the day, was absolutely wonderful. We couldn't have asked for a kinder person to have carried out the service. He was so respectful, explained every step, never rushed us, and was so gentle with all of us. It was everything we hoped it would be for our gramps and more."

— H Elizabeth (about Mark)

"Emma was outstanding. During an incredibly difficult time, she was compassionate, patient and quietly reassuring. Nothing ever felt rushed or burdensome, and her calm guidance gave me confidence that everything was in safe hands. Mark was a true gentleman — his respectful presence and thoughtful manner brought a quiet sense of steadiness to what could have been an overwhelming day."

— Paulette Warner (about Emma)

"After the devastating diagnosis of my wife and her ultimate death, we all felt raw and unable to contain our emotions. Just one phone call to Lymns, and respect was shown from the outset. Collection was just a few hours later, giving us time to spend a few last moments together. Karen and every single person that we had contact with at Lymns were extremely professional and paid us and my wife full respect for our loss."

— Nigel Walsh (about Karen)

If you ever have the sad job of arranging a funeral, I can’t recommend A. W Lymn in Carlton highly enough. I was dreading attending the meeting with the funeral director when my grandma passed away, but as soon as we stepped into the building, we were made to feel at ease. Mark showed nothing but absolute professionalism, care and compassion, and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to have dealt with the arrangements for my grandma’s funeral. Mark is literally one of the nicest people I’ve met. Thank you so much to Mark and the team for making it as easy as could be during this difficult time. Best wishes, family of Beryl Gray

After the devastating diagnosis of my wife and her ultimate death, we all felt raw and unable to contain our emotions. We had not made any prior arrangements, as you do not want to prompt the inevitable, but just one phone call to Lymns, and respect was shown from the outset. Collection was just a few hours later, giving us time to spend a few last moments together Karen and every single person that we had contact with at Lymns were extremely professional and paid us and my wife full respect for our loss. The procedure and options were fully explained and our questions were answered. We had in mind, our own wishes for the occasion and these were accommodated. Richard the celebrant made sure that we were prepared for the day and helped us to play our personal roles. They are in the strange situation of no one ever wanting to use them, but I can fully recommend Lymms with no reservations whatsoever. Price was never an issue for us, but we were pleased with the cost. Everything went smoothly on the day. They should be proud of the service that they delivered.

We used A W Lymn for my father’s funeral and Paul Richardson supported us through the funeral arrangements. This was done with sympathy and compassion. He also brought some light hearted moments at a difficult time which helped the situation. Communication was excellent by Paul as he kept us regularly updated. On the day of the funeral, the whole team supported and ensured the day went smoothly.

We used Lymns at Carlton Nottingham. Emily and the team were exceptional with information and advice that I needed at the time of the passing of my Dad. There support was amazing leading up to and on the day of the cremation the day will stay with me always as a celebration of his life. Thankyou

From our very first contact, A.W. Lymn at Carlton treated my brother’s funeral arrangements with dignity, professionalism and genuine care. Emma, who was my main point of contact, was outstanding. During an incredibly difficult time, she was compassionate, patient and quietly reassuring. Nothing ever felt rushed or burdensome, and her calm guidance gave me confidence that everything was in safe hands. On the day itself, Mark looked after us and was a true gentleman. His respectful presence and thoughtful manner brought a quiet sense of steadiness to what could have been an overwhelming day. Grant, who drove the hearse, conducted everything with such composure and professionalism. The entire team from the church through to the graveside worked seamlessly and with great respect. Every detail was handled with care and precision. My brother was laid to rest with the dignity he deserved, and for that I will always be grateful. I can find no faults, only commendations. Thank you to the whole team at Carlton for the professionalism, kindness and quiet strength you showed throughout. Best wishes Paulette Warner and family x
