At this exact moment, we pause to honor the lives forever changed on September 11, 2001.

At 8:46 AM, American Airlines Flight 11 struck the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
We remember the innocent lives lost, the heroic first responders who ran towards the danger, and the countless families who carry the weight of this tragedy every day.
May we never forget the unity, resilience, and love for one another that followed as a nation.

Our team here at Galante Funeral Home stands in solemn remembrance and reflection today, and always.
Let us take this moment to honor and hold in our hearts all those we have lost.

Food provides us with comfort, strength and communion; therefore, we recognize its natural connection with the healing process of funeral services.
At Galante Funeral Home, we proudly offer use of our hospitality room located below our visitation areas during all services, one of the few funeral homes in the area to do so.
Every family is welcomed to bring food of their choosing, or catering can be arranged.
We provide for every detail, so you and your loved ones don't have to.
