YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe death of Pope Francis has sparked a period of mourning with tributes pouring in from Catholic bishops, world leaders and people from across the globe.
"We can never choreograph our own birth or death, can we? That's always in God's hands. But if you could choreograph it, you couldn't choreograph it any better than what happened," said Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York.
"The last time we saw him, Easter Sunday, the last words, 'a blessed Easter,' as he gave us his blessing."
Francis died early Monday at the age of 88, with his last public appearance on Easter Sunday at St. Peter's Square. The Vatican on Monday said the pope's cause of death was a cerebral stroke that led to a coma.
