  • Nyhetsuppdatering om Adolf Ratzka och begravningen (sidan på svenska)

A week has gone since Adolf, one of the world’s Independent Living’s strongest leaders, died in a tragic accident.
Adolf’s wife Doro and Katharina his daughter have planned the funeral. Some plans are not completely confirmed but we now publish the information that is confirmed with the dates so people can make arrangements to attend if they can. All are welcome to attend Adolf’s funeral ceremony and memorial service, but you do need to register on the funeral home’s webpage listed below.

The Funeral will be on August 12th at 12:15.
It will take place in the Hoppets Chapell in the Skogskyrkogården - the cemetery.
The address is Sockenvägen 492 Enskede which is in Stockholm.
The funeral will be in English. It will not be streamed.

Adolf's family have decided that memorial gifts should go to the newly created "Adolf Ratzka Memorial Fund for Migrants with Disability" to be administered by the Independent Living Institute. Swish 123 191 01 40 or Swedbank account: 8327-9,974 619 323-5

After the ceremony there will be a memorial service at the Enskede Terrassen.
The time is from 14:00 – 17:00.
The address is Sockenvägen 472 Enskede which is near the cemetery.
