I would like to say may he Rest in Peace and be free from illness and anything else that plagued him the last several years of his life.
I stayed up til 1 am this morning watching and waiting with the people in St Peters Square in Rome, outside his Vatican Apartments, watching the lights in his apartments for any news. Heartened by what the reports told us, he's awake, he's lucid, he's ready to greet God. I woke to watch some more reports telling of his condition and of the reports from the Vatican and felt saddened at his passing this evening in Rome. I cried hearing stories from people.
We will long remember Pope John Paul II, may he rest in peace.
