Such great care, support and professionalism from my first contact with William Houghton Funerals on Tag Lane right through to the last contact. With the help of Liam and his team the arrangements for my late mother's funeral was not a heavy burden. Liam was helpful, patient, respectful and accommodated our every request. Me and my family can not thank Liam and his team enough for ensuring our lovely mum was cared for throughout the time spent in their care. Thankyou Liam, from Lynn and all the family.
