Oh gosh, he had just appeared on Easter yesterday and gave a message.

He was pretty amazing.

So glad he was able to be with the faithful one last time on Easter.

God Speed.

What a blessing Pope Francis was to the world. The first pope from the New World, as well as the first Jesuit pope.

He will be greatly missed.

The Pope was a fine example of kindness and acceptance of all religions and kinds of people. He will be missed. After his illness, it's appropriate that he hung on through Easter. I think God had that plan for him.

It was almost like he knew, the way he insisted yesterday. He was a good man. May his memory be a blessing.

I'm so sad. He was the best Pope in my lifetime, He lived what Jesus taught. I pray our next Pope is just as wonderful.

he will go down in history as one of the most forward thinkers of our time. only wish he was elected at a younger age.

I have never cared for this man. May he rest in peace and may the cardinals choose a better pope this time around.
