Today April 18th, was the state funeral of Polish President Lech Kaczynski and his wife, tragically killed in a plane accident in Russia last weekend. A funeral Mass was held in St Mary's Basilica and a procession took the coffins to be buried in the historic Wawel Cathedral in Krakow. The coffins were placed in the royal crypt beneath Wawel Castle where 17 Polish Kings lay in rest.
I have been very privileged to have recently visited the beautiful St Mary's and Wawel, in Krakow where this funeral took place. Unfortunately today, I saw this city on TV in very sad circumstances
This tragedy will remain in my memory.
