Funerals

Funerals

Cathedral clergy are available to provide pastoral care during the time leading up to death by visiting the sick and praying with the bereaved. Please contact us at 516-746-2955, ext. 194.

Regarding the funeral rite itself, all practical arrangements should be organized through your funeral home. Please contact the cathedral office if you have questions or if you would like us to recommend a funeral home.
