Just to let those of you that know he passed away this afternoon at 2 00 central time today. May god rest his soul....
Lord God,
whose days are without end
and whose mercies are beyond counting,
keep us mindful
that life is short and the hour of death unknown.
Let your Spirit guide our days on earth
in the ways of holiness and justice,
that we may serve you
in union with the whole Church,
sure in faith, strong in hope, perfected in love.
And when our earthly journey is ended,
lead us rejoicing into your kingdom,
where you live for ever and ever.
Amen.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,
and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace.
Amen.
May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed,
through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.
May the peace of God,
which is beyond all understanding,
keep our hearts and minds
in the knowledge and love of God
and of his Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen.
AMEN.
What a good man he was, he treated presidents to bums on the streets in the same exact manner, we have experienced a very big loss to humankind today.

It will be hard to fill his shoes. He loved the world and for once the whole world loved him back. Now that is an amazing n our confused world.
He will be sadly missed, God grant him peace and health in his new home, The Kingdom of God.

"When freedom does not have a purpose, when it does not wish to know anything about the rule of law engraved in the hearts of men and women, when it does not listen to the voice of conscience, it turns against humanity and society.'"
