20:29 Toccherà a Ruini annunciare morte Toccherà al Vicario cardinale Camillo Ruini annunciare ufficialmente la morte del Papa. Lo prevede la procedura, che affida appunto al Vicario del Santo Padre per la Diocesi di Roma il compito di dare notizia del triste evento nel momento in cui avviene. In piazza San Pietro saranno invece i rintocchi delle campane della Basilica a diffondere la notizia del decesso di Giovanni Paolo II.
requiescat in pacem
La Repubblica is the national paper in Italy.
I didn't think he would last long when they said he was having kidney problems yesterday. May peace be with him.
EWTN has confirmed
Sad Sad day.
Truly one of the greatest men of the 20th century. He had a huge hand in bringing down the Soviet Empire. Mr. Reagan will be at the gates waiting for you. We will truly miss you John Paul.
I don't speak Italian. Help me out.
God bless you, O Holy Father. You will be sorely missed.
You Italian? That seems to be talking about the process of the announcement, not necessarily that he died already.
That is not an announcement of his passing, here is translation
It will touch to Ruini to announce dead women Will touch to the Vicario cardinal Camillo Ruini to officially announce the dead women of the Pope. It previews the procedure, that the task of giving news of the sad event in the moment exactly entrusts to the Vicario of the Saint Padre for the Diocese of Rome in which happens. In Saint public square Peter will be instead the rintocchi of the bells of the Basilica to diffuse the news of the death of Giovanni Paul II
Radio news at 10:38AM Pacific is still saying "maybe".
But if true, God rest his soul. I will miss Pope John Paul II.
Eternal rest grant unto John Paul II
Let perpetual light shine upon him
May he rest in peace
Hail Mary, full of grace, blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and until the hour of our deaths...
May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
