Death of Pope John Paul

29 September, 1978 

I am shocked and deeply saddened.

Pope John Paul held out such promise of continuing the work of his two predecessors in striving for ; a peaceful. and more caring world and for the betterment of mankind.

The world has lost a great and humble messenger for peace.

Mankind will mourn his untimely death.
