They’ll definitely step back into the traditional values.Never change much just tweak it up to fit with modern times , core values remain the same.

It was like Weekend At Bernie’s at times ! he obviously wanted to keep his terminal diagnosis quiet . Anyone with that much faith wouldn’t be afraid to die.
Not religious at all, but sad to see Pope Francis go, as said above, he was quite a change from papal tradition...being a Jesuit and coming from South America. He seemed a very humble man, despite being the leader of the Catholic church. Read one quote saying he'd be remembered for his kindness to others, especially the poor and disenfranchised - what a lovely thing to be remembered for

Pope died from a stroke and heart failure.
Same here. He looked like he'd had a severe stroke. Poor fella looked shocking.I was just thinking he looked dead yesterday when they wheeled him out
Just watched the BBC programme on him (airs at 9pm on BBC but already on iplayer). Quite an interesting life and made for an interesting and relatively progressive pope.
I was fortunate enough to see the Pope in 2014 at The Vatican. May he rest in eternal peace.
I was next to a lady with a small baby and the Pope took the child and blessed him, the mother was so overwhelmed

Beautiful 
Obv he was really, really ill this weekend so not the same thing, but there was a anecdote he told in an interview where he admitted to falling asleep during prayer, and when the interviewer asked if it was “allowed”, Francis said that fathers always love it when their children fall asleep in their arms. Whether you’re religious or not, Roman Catholic or not, I just thought it was a really beautiful thing to say.
Old people decay quicker!
I don’t like the way they’ve placed his hands I prefer them clasped , they’ve obviously got him attached to some sort of structure underneath the robes.
Poor guy. I'm not religious but do think people sometimes hold on for certain events. He obviously wanted to do his job at Easter and then he could go.
Its funny you should say that as when I saw that I thought the same because for some reason they couldn't get my late mother's hands to clasp and they ended up being much like the way the Pope's are.
Yeah it’s like a tradition having them clasped around the beads ,his right hand is levitating .I’m sure they can manipulate and use tools to achieve a better look.

Thanks for this. I’ve just watched her, she’s very calming isn’t she.
