Ghana has just witnessed a state funeral of rare dignity-a beautifully executed, state-of-the-art ceremony that brought the nation together in grief, pride, and solemn respect. My commendation to the team at the presidency that put together that ceremony. The glowing tributes from government, families, friends, and citizens painted a fitting picture of the eight gallant souls we lost on August 6 in the Adansi Brofoyedur helicopter crash.
