There’s a life size cardboard cut out of Pope Francis near the entrance to my kid’s Catholic grammar school. She’s in 6th grade and I just realized this is the only pope she’s ever known.

Glad to have met him. Humble, holy man. During a very secularized time in society, he did his best to bring people back into/or into the Church.

Jesuit, peace-loving, kind and compassionate. An advocate for the marginalized, down trodden and poor. Let's all heed Pope's words and actions. He will sorely be missed, and I, for one, pray his replacement advances with his modernity, and doesn't take the Church backwards.

A holy man and a giant Pope.
May he R.I.P.
