The Pope, regarded by some as the greatest Pope in history is passing on to touch the face of God. While not born Catholic, and not the poster child for catholism, I can appreciate what this figure has done for spirtualality in our time. I was raised in a Holiness church and a few years ago, I became Catholic. This was influenced highly by the teachings of John Paul, II. I certainly have run a "gammet" of Christianity. He was able to relate to "people" in awhile most other religious figures only dream of. While holding true to the teachings of the church he has been a valuable influence in the world. From his "polictical" power to being able to relate to people of all faiths.
I certainly do not believe in everything that is passed down by the Vatican, but I can recognize that this has certainly a special individual. A time in history that we should remember.
Peace be with you Holy Father.

Maybe you'll update this one before the next pope needs to be chosen.
