Just a short note to let you know that Barbara and I share in your loss and offer to you our sincere condolences and prayers. We know from our experiences the importance and beauty of Polish friendship and the resiliency of the Polish nation. The poet George Elliot wrote “Souls live on in perpetual echoes” All that each of us does continues forever in the effects it has on others and that others have on others. Let us take solace from the “echoes” of Katyn that have emerged and survive the suppression of a totalitarian regime and remember these Polish leaders recently lost at Smolensk, particularly, in their struggles for freedom and democracy. Theirs as well as the Katyn “echoes” have made a better world for all of us. We owe it to them and their sacrifices to remember that freedom is never a final fact but a continuing and evolving process and we have obligations and responsibilities to that end in their honor. May God bless their souls and guide us in perpetuating their “echoes” In Solidarity, Mike Waske ***Kondolencje z Rustavi (Gruzja)Z wielkim smutkiem przyjęliśmy informację o tragicznej śmierci Prezydenta Rzeczpospolitej Polskiej Lecha Kaczyńskiego i Jego Małżonki Marii a także wszystkich towarzyszących Mu Osób - Ofiar katastrofy polskiego samolotu, które zginęły w drodze na obchody 70-lecia Zbrodni Katyńskiej.

Cyne Okinczyc ***Kondolencje z Seattle (USA)Dear Joanna, We are all so sad here in Seattle about the tragedy. The SGSCA had a gathering this Sunday afternoon to share the grief. One of the local TV stations showed up and did a small piece on the Polish Community. They were amazed to learn that there are people here in Seattle who are not Polish but are as saddened as the rest of the Polish Community.

Please, receive our most sincere condolence because of your President's Lech Kachinsky and his high delegation's perish in the aircraft crash. The tragic situation being related to the planned ceremony to pay tribute to the thousands of Polish victims of 1940 in Katyn makes it even more unthinkable... We, Lithuanians, share the keen sorrow the families of the late and all Poles have to cope with today ...Ina SidlauskieneChief ExpertInternational Relations, Business Development and Tourism DivisionDepartment of Investment and EconomicsKlaipeda City Municipality Administration ***In sympathy and support Allen and I wish to let all of you know we are thinking of you as you reflect and consider the tragic events of this day both in the present and 70 years ago - you are in our thoughts and prayers and we hope that you will think toward the future and what "can and will be accomplished" because of the great work that each of you do to make this world a better place in which to live - we are in support of you now and as you take the next steps.Honoring the words of Jerzy Buzek:It is difficult to comprehend the tragedy. It was difficult to imagine that a few dozen people, many of whom were elected by us, the Poles, in every part of our homeland, to be our representatives, would die within a few seconds while on duty, on duty for each of us. It was a special and unusual trip. It was about the memory of the events 70 years ago. Now we have another great memorial and we will remember that memorial - also on Russian soil near Smolensk, near Katyn - on the date 10 April. This is a terrible coincidence, and let us be together, let us talk to each other. "Let us talk to each other".In sympathy and support.Allen and Janice Jaworski ***Kondolencje z Seattle (USA) Dear Joanna and Agata, I opened my computer this morning to find the sad and tragic news regarding President Kaczynski and the Polish delegation on their way to Katyn.
