The nurse who was found hanged days after answering a hoax call about the Duchess of Cambridge will be remembered at Westminster Cathedral later.
Jacintha Saldanha, 46, apparently killed herself in accommodation attached to King Edward VII hospital last week.
Catholics can request that a Mass be offered in the name of a dead person.
Memorial services have been held at the hospital and in Bristol where her husband and two children live.
A Westminster Cathedral spokesman said Saturday's Mass will be offered "for the repose of the soul of Jacintha and her grieving family".
Mrs Saldanha was found dead eight days ago in London.
She had answered a call on 4 December from two Australian DJs pretending to be the Queen and the Prince of Wales wanting to speak to the pregnant duchess who was being treated for acute morning sickness.
On Thursday, an inquest at Westminster's Coroner Court heard that Mrs Saldanha was found hanged. She left three suicide notes.
'High-profile' patientsThe hospital has said that senior managers tried to reassure Mrs Saldanha "on a number of occasions" that no blame was attached to her for putting the hoax call through to the duchess' ward.
In a letter to MP Keith Vaz, which was released by the hospital on Friday evening, chief executive John Lofthouse explained the protocol in place for dealing with calls to "high-profile" patients.
"Part of our procedure is to take the name and number of the individual and call them back. This is in order to verify that the call is genuine. We also empower our staff to use their judgement.
"On this particular occasion, Jacintha believed that the call was genuine, and she felt it appropriate to put the call through. We stand by her judgement."
The hospital has insisted that Mrs Saldanha was not facing disciplinary proceedings - "because she had been the victim of a cruel trick."
The letter also said she had been offered time off but she said she would prefer to continue working. "Neither ourselves, her friends or family noticed anything to give cause for concern," Mr Lofthouse said.
