Mother asks for prayers to find her son’s body

THE GRIEVING wife of a Polish man who drowned with his only son off the Cork coast last week has asked for prayers that her son’s body will be found.

Piotr Latek’s heartbroken wife, Joanna, and his father, Stanislaus, were among a congregation of about 250 people, the vast majority of whom are Polish, at a special Mass in the Holy Cross Church in Kenmare.

Piotr’s body was found by naval divers last Wednesday three days after he and his son, Mattheus, 13, were swept off Cod’s Head while fishing.
