Summary:

This article is about the soldier Lee Rigby, from the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, who was murdered  in Woolwich, south-east London by two extremists in May. The article is particularly about his funeral.  His funeral took place at his regiment’s garrison church. His body will lay in the church for one night and an honour guard of soldiers from his regiment will remain with Rigby’s body inside the church. On Friday his body will leave the church and will go to Middleton Cemetery. The two extremists are accused of Fusilier Rigby’s murder. One of the two is also accused of the attempted murder of two police officers.

Opinion:

This story has been shocking for me ever since I heard Lee Rigby had been killed. His death was so terrible and unfair that it I cannot describe in words how angry I get of this kind of ‘actions’. However I think it is good that the UK still get to know how the funeral is set, because this story is so shocking, everyone is interested in this kind of news. It is beautiful how concerned the UK is and how the funeral is planned out. A respectful funeral for a very brave soldier.
