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.

May his memory be a blessing

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.
