★★★★★
As a family, we have been given a wonderfully caring service, over a number of years by the staff at J Rymer. After sadly loosing mum, in January 2026, using the services of J Rymer for her funeral was a must. Jess pulled all the stops out for a timely service. Allowing a family member to be present before returning abroad. We can't praise her & the business enough. Caring, compassionate, flexible, efficient, informative to the highest standard. I would highly recommend J Rymer during a family loss. You are all a great credit to the people of York. Thank you.

Excellent and caring service throughout. Our main contact was Heather who kept us informed of developments at every stage. We’ve used Rymers three times now which speaks volumes.

Excellent service. Took a weight off our shoulders. Friendly and respectful. They never rushed you and would recommend them to everybody.

Everything was explained and done with the greatest of dignity. A wonderful send off for our mum

Chris Rymer and his team did a wonderful job taking such good care of our Father and organising such a lovely funeral. From the beginning we felt in professional but compassionate hands at a difficult time. J Rymer made a difficult process much more bearable and we would highly recommend them.
