Bishop Paul McAleenan, Auxiliary Bishop in Westminster, will preside at the Funeral Mass.
The parish priest, Fr James Garvey and nine more priests representing the other Catholic Churches in the Stevenage Deanery will concelebrate.
A letter from Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Archbishop of Westminster and President of the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales, will be read at the Mass by Fr Garvey.
The family and parish expect a high number of mourners to attend the funeral, therefore a screen live-streaming the mass will be placed on Broadway Gardens, opposite the church, to allow more people to take part in the mass.
