In Memoriam: Pope Francis

Official cause of death: stroke and heart failure

Today, we mark the passing of a global spiritual leader whose presence impacted millions. While I did not know him personally, nor followed his life closely, I recognize the weight of this moment for Catholics and for the broader faith community around the world.

The role of the Pope has always been more than ceremonial — it's a symbol of continuity, reflection, and conscience in turbulent times. In a world so often divided, his passing reminds us of the need for moral grounding, thoughtful leadership, and humility.

My thoughts are with those who are mourning, and I stand with all who now look to the future with heavy hearts, seeking wisdom, stability, and hope in the traditions they cherish.
