Pope John Paul II was buried today. I recorded his funeral, which aired at 4:00 am here, but I haven't had a chance to watch it, yet. I sang for a diocesan requiem mass for the Pope this afternoon at St. James Cathedral. It was very moving.
Our choir sang for the Pope at the Vatican back in 1993 and it was a life changing event. We got to have our picture taken with him and at that time it was apparent that he was no ordinary man. You could feel his holiness. My wife's comment today pretty much sums it up: "he was a saint walking among us".
Saint Pope John Paul II the Great, thank you for your inspiration. You will be sorely missed.
