Requiescat in pace

My dear friends, it is with great sadness that we bid farewell today to our dear beloved holy father! We will miss him tremendously, but we will also be comforted by the fact that he is finally receiving his reward for all of his work here on earth.

Eternal rest grant unto him, oh Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed
through the mercy of God, rest in peace!
Amen
