@THEY CallMe Mr Wilkes  Oh, those photos are awesome! Thanks for posting them.

I understand he had double pneumonia before he died. That had to be especially hard for someone his age.

@KKJ   Exactly my thoughts. He made that surprise appearance in the wheelchair and also had a few moments with Vice President Vance yesterday.

My feeling is that he knew his time was very, very soon and he wanted to bless the people outside of the Vatican, even if he didn't feel quite up to it.

@World Traveler Yes, it was like he had one more thing he needed to do before he passed away.

@bikerbabe  You are welcome. Glad you liked them

@Estellee  Exactly! Good way to put it......"one more thing he needed to do before he passed away."
