James Gandolfini funeral : Latest News, Information, Answers and Websites
James Gandolfini a.k.a Tony Soprano....?
....I remember hearing years ago that real Mafia bosses admired Gandolfinis portrayal of Tony Soprano for being so real & a true representation of Mafia life that the local Cosa Nostra invited him to the funeral of one of their members, which he duly attended, but I cannot find anything online. Does anyone else remember hearing this & do you know if it is true?!....
Answer: Well, people who are connected to the mob have told Jim that his portrayal of them is accurate. I'm not sure if they were mob bosses I assume they're not mob bosses. The funeral thing I'm not sure about that I don't think that part is true otherwise you would've heard publicly about it. He is friends with some of them or used to be friends with them one of the two. Hope that answers your question

Do you think there will be an actual Funeral Mass for James Gandolfini?
I am sure most of his relatives are Catholics and thats what Catholics do when a loved one dies. Or do you think it will be just another typical "Memorial Service" that so many of the Hollywood types go for? No mention of religion or beliefs; just a sort of "roast for the dead" with anecdotes and feelgood memories? Just curious as to what you predict. I hope they have a Mass for him and maybe a public memorial some time later on.
Bio material says he was raised by devout Catholic parents. His divorce and remarriage would not be an issue in having a funeral Mass.
Answer: It's neither my choice nor yours. His family will decide, and their choice is none of my business. I can't see the point in a 'public memorial' WHy? He was an actor, he did his job. He wasn't some sort of savior or prophet, he was just a normal guy.

Why an Episcopal funeral for Italian Catholic James Gandolfini?
James Gandolfini was born into a devout Roman Catholic family. He took his son to visit the Vatican shortly before he passed away unexpectedly. There really has never been any mention of his religious leanings as he tended not to talk much about his private life. But are we to believe that his entire family went from being raised Roman Catholic to Episcopalian? Why else would they have had an Episcopal funeral service instead of a Catholic funeral mass? Some have said there was no evidence that he was Catholic or ever attended Catholic church services. True enough. But was there a shred of evidence that he attended an Episcopal Church? Or that he ever joined one? Whats the story? Surely someone must know! From the news stories about his funeral, there was no presence of Catholic clergy and it was not billed as an ecumenical service. Was the entire Gandolfini family disenfranchised from the Catholic faith?

what happen in the sopranos finale?
why is everybody saying it was a bad finale.
Answer: Here was the funeral for Bobby Bacala, Tony's soldier and brother-in-law, who was shot dead on Leotardo's orders last week. Here was Tony (series star James Gandolfini) paying a hospital visit to his gravely injured consigliere, Silvio Dante, also targeted by Leotardo.
Tony's ne'er-do-well son A.J. (Robert Iler) continued to wail about the misery in the world, and voiced a fleeting urge to join the Army and go fight in Afghanistan (Tony persuaded him to get involved in filmmaking, instead). Daughter Meadow (Jamie-Lynn Sigler) harped on her plans to be a lawyer.
Tony visits his senile Uncle Junior (Dominic Chianese) at the nursing home. "You and my dad, you two ran North Jersey," Tony prompts him.
"We did?" said Uncle Junior with no sign of recognition. "That's nice."
Despite suspicions to the contrary, neither Paulie Walnuts nor Patsy Parisi sold out Tony. And neither was whacked. Dr. Melfi, who kicked Tony out of therapy last week, made no last-minute appearance.
Sure, headaches lie ahead for Tony. The Feds are still after him. And Meadow's fiance, Patsy Jr., is a lawyer who may well be pursuing cases that intrude on Tony's business interests
So what else is new?
The finale displayed their lives continuing, for better and worse, unaffected by the fact that the series is done. The implication was, they will go on as usual. We just won't be able to watch.
Of course, Leotardo (Frank Vincent) hit a dead end after Tony located him with the help of his favorite federal agent. The execution was a quick but classic "Sopranos" scene: Pulling up at a gas station with his wife, Leotardo made a grand show of telling his two young grandchildren in the back seat to "wave bye-bye" as he emerged from his SUV. The next moment he was on the pavement, shot in the head.
Then you heard the car roll over his head. Crunch! Quick, clinical, even comical, this was the only violence during the hour.
Not that Chase (who wrote and directed this episode) didn't tease viewers with the threat of death in almost every scene.
This was never more true than in the final sequence. On the surface, it was nothing more momentous than Tony, his wife, Carmela (Edie Falco), Meadow and A.J. meeting for dinner at a cozy family restaurant.
When he arrived, Tony dropped a coin in the jukebox and played the classic Journey power ballad "Don't Stop Believing." Meanwhile, every moment seemed to foreshadow disaster: Suspicious-looking people coming in the door or sitting at a nearby table. Meadow on the street having trouble parallel parking her car. With every passing second, the audience was primed for tragedy. It was a scene both warm and fuzzy yet full of dread, setting every viewer's heart racing for no clear reason.
But nothing would happen. It was just a family gathering for dinner at a restaurant. Four people among many.
But then -- with a jingle of the bell on the front door, Tony looked up, apparently seeing Meadow make her delayed entrance. Or could he have seen something awful -- something he certainly deserved -- about to come down?
Probably not. Almost certainly a false alarm. But we'll never know. With that, "The Sopranos" cut to black, leaving us nourished after eight years. And flustered. And fated to always wonder what happened next.

Why an Episcopal Cathedral for James Gandolfinis funeral? Was he Episcopalian?
Was St. Patricks Cathedral having the floor cleaned that day?
Answer: Not sure why the first person to answer is such a d!ck, but this is Yahoo ANSWERS. People with questions come here and ASK THEM. I am sure the person knows they can go to Google or look things up elsewhere. So can anyone else who uses Yahoo Answers. Funny he didn't say look it up in Yahoo! LOL
I wondered the same thing when I read that the funeral will be at St. John The Divine, which is an Episcopal Cathedral. So far I have not seen any reasons given. I knew Gandolfini was from an Italian Catholic family and also that he visited the Vatican with his son shortly before he passed away. One could assume he was at least historically Catholic even if he switched at some point. In time the reason may surface. So far they have not even mentioned what funeral home they are using.

Will James Gandolfinis funeral on Thursday be open to the public?
The service is supposed to be this Thursday morning at 10:00 a.m. at the Episcopal Cathedral of St.John The Divine in New York City. I assumed the location was chosen so that his many fans would be able to attend. The Cathedrals website seems to say that on Thursday the Cathedral will be CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC!
"Due to events in the Cathedral, Jane Alexander: Surveys (from the Cape of Good Hope) and Hidden Lives: The Untold Story of Urban Refugees will be closed to the public on Thursday, June 27."
Can this be possible? Having the funeral at the largest cathedral in the world and closing it to the public? Does any of this make sense? Or am I misreading the closure notice? Are they closing the presentation they have scheduled so that people cant get into the cathedral? Anyone know? It would be nice to be able to attend.
James, for a Top Answerer you blew it on this one. See, it IS open to the public. Maybe next time, try to answer with actual information rather than letting your holier than thou attitude get in the way.
James, for a Top Answerer you blew it on this one. See, it IS open to the public. Maybe next time, try to answer with actual information rather than letting your holier than thou attitude get in the way.
Answer: Yes, It will be open to the public, On a first come first served basis, I hope this information was useful to you. This is my first time to answer any question on Yahoo but I'm a Big Fan of James Gandolfini and I was really saddened by his death. I Just called the Church personally and a Women gave me that info. You can call them yourself to make sure. I hope this answers your question.

Any idea why James Gandolfinis funeral is going to be at an Episcopal Church?
Just read that his funeral will be in New York City on Thursday at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, which is an Episcopal church. I read that Gandolfini was the child of "devout Roman Catholics." Wondering if he had become an Episcopalian at some point or just that the venue was chosen for its size, in order to accommodate the many mourners and guests. Any clues?
@JamesK. You said "evidently" which means there is EVIDENCE he was Episcopalian. Where is the EVIDENCE? I must have missed that.
