Dozens attend memorial
service for geese; Babies Gosnell killed get no burial

After the Philadelphia
Medical Examiner’s office denied
a request from a leading pro-life Catholic priest to give the babies abortion
practitioner Kermit Gosnell killed in brutal infanticides, official say
the babies were cremated and buried.
The city said it followed
its normal procedures by conducting cremation of the bodies of the 47 babies,
according to city spokesman Mark McDonald said.
Father Pavone told LifeNews
he is upset by the decision. The National Director of Priests for Life said:
“There is no need for the
Medical Examiner to have some hidden, secret burial as if we are to be ashamed
of these babies. These babies are not unclaimed. They are claimed and have been
named by us, because they are our brothers and sisters. We will therefore have
a national funeral service for these babies, even without the bodies. We will
involve the entire pro-life movement and all people of good will, and more
information will be announced shortly. Moreover, we want to know exactly where
the remains of these children will be placed.”
“In April, we requested
permission from the Philadelphia Medical Examiner to bury these children,” Fr.
Pavone stated. “The nation was stunned to learn how Dr. Gosnell killed these
children, and then stored their bodies in cat food containers and freezers. Now
we have an opportunity to treat them better, by at least honoring their bodies
with a proper funeral and burial.”
