Will Richard III be granted a Catholic Requiem Mass?

The recently discovered mortal remains of King Richard III has caused an interesting question to be raised at the Catholic Herald. Will the last Plantagenent king be buried as a Catholic? After all, the man was, according to history, a serious Catholic. To bury him as a protestant would be an insult to his memory and to cast a lie upon his life. 

The full report can be read here. Interesting.

We believe in a good argument. That means NO ad hominem attacks. This also includes Pope Francis. Further, referring to him by any other name, may or may not indicate a schismatic attitude, and given the confusion in the Church your comment will NOT be published. Comments are those of the commentators and not those of this blog. You may use a pseudonym... we do... Behave like a guest in our living room and you will be fine.
