Title: Photos From Father Maurice Roy In Rome
Post by: Henry on April 12, 2005, 08:31:56 AM

Hello everyone,

I did make it into the piazza in from of St. peter's. It was quite something. I don't know how it was at the other sites. It was prayerful. It is the end of quite an era. It will take a while to fathom all the influence that he had. I spoke to a Basilian monk who grew up in Canada and is now in the Ukraine. The popes influence out there was tremendous. This will be my last email. After this I pack everything to get ready to fly out tomorrow morning.

Take care,
 Fr. Roy

And to have a camera!
Great shots.

What an awesome tribute it was to the pope that on the morning of his funeral people from all over the world--including some world leaders who don't especially like each other--were gathered together  in peace and prayer.
