Just a day later, the Cardinal announced his passing at 88 years old, leaving the faithful in shock and mourning. His final days were marked by his heartfelt commitment to advocating for the disenfranchised, including migrants and the impoverished. The Pope's legacy is one of compassion, and many mourners, holding rosaries and draped in his homeland's flag, gathered in St. Peter’s Square to honor a leader who, according to one attendee, was “the pope of the last ones, of the poor.”
