Just back from the Vatican

My virtual presence at the Vatican was a great experience for me The solemn funeral services for the Late Pope Francis is something that I have never witnessed virtually anywhere else
He deserved all what they did for him although he had expressed he just wanted a simple burial. Every religion was represented and so also every dignitary from all countries was present. The crowd that attended was in millions
The prayers accompanied by soleful music is still rining in my ear. They have left the Basilicca and are on their way to St. Mary Majaoar where the Late Pope Francis will be laid to rest.
MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE.

How beautifully the crowd was managed - that is how we Catholics conduct ourselves.

@allknowing - My friend told me that all the smartphone rang at the same time on Saturday. It was the warning to get out from St. Peter as they were closing the doors at 5 pm.
