Catholics Mourn, Funeral Planned for Pope
Although I'm not a Catholic, I have to say that this particular Pontiff will go down in history as one of their all-time great leaders.
If nothing else along with Ronald Reagan, and Margaret Thatcher, he was one of the triumvirate that essentially engineered the crash of the Iron Curtain and the subsequent end of Soviet Communism as a serious force in the world.
He will definitely be a tough act to follow. Requiescat in pacem.
