Rev. Michael Duffy said Donald Trump prayed at the wake of NYPD officer Jonathan Diller and the cop’s son Ryan clapped.
Former President Trump prayed the Lord’s Prayer with the grieving family of Jonathan Diller at the slain NYPD detective’s wake Thursday — and was cheered on by the cop’s son, the ceremony celebrant recalled.
“It was just such a beautiful human, simple moment that meant so much to the family and so much to the people in that room,” Rev. Michael Duffy told Human Interest outside of Diller’s funeral Saturday.
Trump flew to Long Island Thursday after he was personally invited by Diller’s grieving family to celebrate the life of Detectiver Diller, who was shot and killed during a routine traffic stop in Far Rockaway, Queens.
The Republican presidential nominee offered his condolences to Diller’s young wife Stephanie and their 1-year-old son Ryan, with Trump later telling The Post he promised her he would work to ensure her husband’s death was not in vain.
