Henry Vigliante

Owner

Henry Vigliante of St James, is proud to be a third generation funeral director. He graduated from American Academy of Funeral service in New York City in 1962. Through the years, he worked in all facets of the funeral business with his family in Brooklyn before he ventured on his own to Smithtown and purchased The Branch Funeral Home in 1974.

For over 40 years, he has been dedicated to his profession consistently giving each family in need the personal attention they deserve. He also believes that funerals should be priced to meet all family budgets, not to create a family burden. The funeral home has been a source of comfort to all members of a loved one’s family, young and old because of his leadership in making sure the facility meets the growing needs of the families he serves. Besides being the father of six and grandfather of four, he has been very active in St. Patrick’s Church as usher, extraordinary minister and member of the choir. He is an active member in the community, a Paul Harris Fellow in the Smithtown Rotary, and a fourth degree Knight of Columbus. For years he chaired the Smithtown Tree Lighting. He has created a reputation second to none. Henry feels truly blessed to work with his family and staff.
