The Williams-Hanson-Kaun Funeral Home was formed through a merging of funeral homes in Princeton. The Williams family first purchased the Hanson Funeral Home in 1987 and then the Kaun Funeral Home in 1994. The present funeral home building was purchased and renovated in 1999. In the fall of 2008 the Williams and Dingmann families partnered to form Williams Dingmann Family Funeral Homes.
We would like to thank the many families we have been privileged to serve over the years. We value your continued trust and confidence in us as Williams Dingmann Family Funeral Homes now under the ownership of: Tom Williams, Deb Dingmann and Doug Dingmann.
