The funeral mass was served by the Dean of Uherské Brod, Svatopluk Pavlica, and the writer, publicist and primáš’s friend Jiří Jilík said goodbye to Lubomír Málek for all of them.

“Who sues me, who testifies to me that I killed a deer in the Korytňany mowing ‘How many times have we heard the song in its performance and we have always been struck by beauty. I wrote years ago and I stand behind those words: No one sings a song like Luboš Málek. Who else could? After all, he was born in Korytná and the song is the voice of the region where he grew up with his parents and brother. The landscape chose Luboš Málek to speak to the people in his voice and say: Behold, man, such I am a region, such are my slopes, forests and fields, my rivers and streams, my villages and homesteads, and such people live in them, so they work, they rejoice and so they cry, “said Jiří Jilík at the coffin of his friend and pointed out that only some people are allowed to sing a picture of the landscape and home in a song so that it smells recognizably to us, even if we are thousands of kilometers away.

“Luboš was one of them. His singing is the key that unlocks the imaginary door and enters the panorama of his native region, “said Jiří Jilík, adding that Lubomír Málek has left, but he stays with us and in us, not only because of what he could do, but also, to what he led us to and what he taught us: to love the region, to music, to the mother tongue, to love people.

“Dear Luboš. I say goodbye to you at the moment for your loved ones and all those who respected you and loved you, who you were, a friend, friend, counselor and teacher, just a good kind. You left, but you will still be with us and in us in your songs, “Jiří Jilík added in conclusion.
