MAS SERVED FOR LATE GOJKO SUSAK

( Editorial: --> 2297 ) ZAGREB, May 7 (Hina) - A mass was served for the deceased Croatian Defence Minister Gojko Susak in a Franciscan church in Zagreb's suburb of Dubrava by Military Ordinary Msgr. Josip Jezerinac. Our Gojko not only had the human in him, he had something more - something that conquered, the source of which was religion. If ever the Croatian people needed people of strong spirit and religion, it is today. Otherwise, everything that has been achieved with blood can be lost and thus, we need Croatian people to unify, Msgr. Jezerinac said. We did not lose Gojko forever, he said, recalling that the Christian religion was based on the belief in resurrection. "We thank God for giving a small nation such a great man who achieved everything he had planned," guardian of the Franciscan Monastery in Zagreb's suburb of Dubrava, Father Zoran Senjak, said.
