He was 51.The Very Rev. Dr. James A. Kowalski, the church's dean, officiated the funeral while David Chase, the creator and executive producer of "The Sopranos," delivered a eulogy.Chase read a letter to Gandolfini, saying he thought he always maintained the joy of a child when playing a role."That's why I think you were such a great actor, because of that boy inside," Chase said. "I think your talent is that you can take the immensity of humankind and the universe and shine it right back at us."Speaking at the funeral, Gandolfini's wife thanked her late husband for their five years of marriage, the Daily News said."My husband was an honest, kind and loving man," she said.
