In Otakar Motejl we have lost a man whose wisdom and untiring service to others made him a role model to all. In his youth he was a scout, and right up to the very last moments of his life he was a shining example of one who upheld the scout oath – to be prepared to help one's country and fellow men with all one's soul and body. Such people are rare in Czech public life.
