Friends, fans and family bid farewell to hockey ace Claudius
Amid a guard of honour with hockey sticks, the mortal remains of legendary hockey Olympian Leslie Claudius were carried to the Saint Paul’s Cathedral in the city hub for the final mass before being taken for funeral as former players, friends and politicos paid their last respects yesterday.
With his family desirous of a sombre affair, the hockey great was not accorded state honours on his final journey.
