I was happy to see him yesterday, though he was obviously very ill. May God rest his soul.
My wife and I were most deeply saddened to learn of the death of Pope Francis... we were greatly moved to have been able to visit him earlier in the month.
He was the closest in a long time that seemed to remember that Christ's love enveloped believer and none.
Pope Francisco has died - a man who, at the head of the Catholic Church, showed kindness, love, and mercy to the neediest people.
