RIP Pope Francis.

Your work on earth has finish, you are now in the arms of Jesus.

Thank you for giving the poor, the vulnerable, the outcast, the down trodden, the migrant, to the people who are suffering because of war, a voice.

A voice that was heard all over the world and reported on.

Your prayers for these people made life a bit easier to live.

May your great work be continued by the next Pope.

Mary Queen of Peace pray for you .

His legacy will be one of mercy, mission, inclusion, care of creation (the cry of the earth), care of those who are poor, of refugees, of prisoners, of the homeless, the joy of the Gospel, and how to live hope! He modelled servant leadership and was a humble follower of Jesus. Rest in peace Holy Father.

I am shocked and saddened by the passing of the Holy Father and Supreme Pontiff, Pope Francis. He was a thoroughly decent man of great intellect, compassion and courage. Now in my early 20s, his work deeply inspired me as a schoolboy in my late teens to turn to the Faith.

Pope Francis, Servant of God, served millions of people on Earth with dignity, grace and humility. As the 266th Pope of the Roman Catholic church, he championed the causes of social injustice and poverty in the world. As the sovereign of the Vatican City State, he was instrumental in reforming the global Catholic institution and brought forth modern day issues such as global warming and migration crises, to the forefront. His papacy modernized the Holy See to be a Powerhouse institution for social conscience in the World.

Above all, Pope Francis will be remembered as a Great Servant of God, Visionary and a Great Diplomat.

God Bless

May Pope Francis rest in peace. He was a man of peace who will be remembered for attempting to bring the more marginalized back into the church community.

Judith Flores

Devastated over the death of Pope Francis. A true beacon of kindness and compassion and a man who put the principles of Christ’s mission at the core of his work. The world will be poorer for his passing.

Ann Steenson

May eternal rest be granted to our Holy Father and faithful servant of God who has inspired so many people, and led us with love, compassion and humility. Thank you and God bless you.

Martin Smith

We were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of our beloved Servant and Pope, Pope Francis. We had the honour and privilege of attending a special audience of married couples with Pope Francis in Dublin during his Irish visit.

We were deeply moved by his humility, generosity of spirit and his simplicity. He had a unique way of being able to translate the love of God into language that everyone could understand.

Pope Francis legacy will be, even to the end he ran the race and fought the good fight. The day before being called home to the Lord, he spent his final hours doing his duties as Representive of Christ on earth. May the Good Lord now welcome you with these words "well done good and Faithful Servant of God". Requiescat in Pace.

Rest easy holy father. You were a good pope
