Liam Payne’s Memorial Service Details
According to USA Today, the funeral was held in Amersham, England at St. Mary’s Church. The location is reportedly about half an hour away from London, and near his hometown, Wolverhampton. The family ultimately decided to hold a private memorial service for the singer, so it’s unclear who spoke and what was said. Fans reportedly gathered on the outskirts of the church, and press set up a media area, per USA TODAY.
