Funeral arrangements are now set for Buffalo Police Officer Craig Lehner.

Calling hours will take place Monday and Tuesday from 3 to 8 p.m. at Lakeside Memorial Funeral Home, which is located at 4199 Lake Shore Road in Hamburg.

A celebration of his life will follow Wednesday at 10 a.m. at KeyBank Center in Downtown Buffalo. Thousands of people, including law enforcement from across the nation, are expected to attend.

Buffalo Police recovered the body of Lehner, 34, Tuesday from the Niagara River, five days after he never resurfaced following a training exercise with the department's underwater recovery team.
