HAVANA — Cuba’s tiny dissident community gathered Saturday to mourn the loss of a prominent leader, Ladies in White founder and leader Laura Pollan, who for years made her home a headquarters for planning protests against the communist government.

Family members, government opponents and diplomats gathered at Pollan’s house in a working-class neighborhood, welcomed by her widower, formerly imprisoned dissident Hector Maseda. The U.S. Interests Section in Cuba brought a wreath.
