In front of a large portrait of Woolmer placed next to the altar, surrounded by candles and covered with garlands of flowers, a visibly upset Inzamam said only Woolmer's family had felt the pain caused by his death more than the players.
The chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board, Naseem Ashraf, described Woolmer as a great man.
"He fought and stood by his troops," he said. "And that is the mark of a great man. And the last e-mail that he sent me, just a few hours before his death, he stood by the boys. He said that they gave their 100%."

About 350 people were in the congregation.
There has been a lot of speculation in the media about the tragic death of Bob Woolmer. However, we have not seen any concrete development in the murder investigation. Instead, we have seen a number of theories. Bob Woolmer is dead and his family members are suffering a lot. I just wish that they could see the killers being punished.
The death of Bob Woolmer is very pathetic. it is also the grief all cricket fans.
