South Africa's Desmond Tutu to lie in state until New Year's Day funeral
Archbishop Tutu IP Trust and Desmond and Leah Tutu Legacy Foundation said on Tuesday.The statement expressed deep thanks for the outpouring of support expressed around the world after Tutu passed away."This deluge of love serves to compensate, to some extent, for Covid regulations restricting the size of gatherings and the nature of the send-off our beloved Arch so richly deserves," the foundations said, referring to Tutu's nickname.Tutu's body will lie in St. George's Cathedral, in his former Cape Town parish.
