FAMILY, friends, dignitaries and the public will gather on Wednesday to honour the life of a respected Sydney detective killed in the line of duty.

Bryson Anderson, a 45-year-old father of three, will be farewelled at a full police funeral at St Patrick's Cathedral in Parramatta.

"We'll no doubt mourn (him)," Commissioner Andrew Scipione told the Fairfax Radio Network on Tuesday.

"We'll cry hard but we'll also remember the fine things he's done. We'll acknowledge him, the leader he was in communities."

Detective Inspector Anderson was stabbed after responding to a neighbour dispute at Oakville, in Sydney's northwest, on Thursday.

He worked as a duty officer at Hawkesbury local area command and recently turned down a promotion in order to continue in the job he loved.

"He was larger than life," Mr Scipione said.

"Having said that, he was well-respected. There were people that looked up to him. He always brought a laugh to any conversation. On top of that he was compassionate and caring."

VIPs including Premier Barry O'Farrell, Governor Marie Bashir, Parramatta Lord Mayor John Chedid and Mr Scipione will attend the service.

Bishop Anthony Fisher will preside over the church proceedings that are expected to last two hours.

Mourners will hear eulogies from Insp Anderson's wife, Donna, his brother Warwick, who is a retired police officer, and another brother Damian.

Mr Scipione invited the public to attend and said overflow arrangements would be in place for those to listen to the proceedings from outside the cathedral.

Afterwards, a roadside guard and marching escort will proceed along Victoria Road between Marist Place and O'Connell Street.

Participants will include the Mounted Unit, Police Band and uniformed officers, as well as visiting interstate commissioners and deputies.

The procession will also include the hearse carrying Insp Anderson's coffin, and his pallbearers.

Motorists are advised Victoria Road will be closed between Church and O'Connell Streets from 3pm until 6pm.
