Pope Francis Dies Aged 88

File photo - Pope Francis receives Sheik Ahmed el-Tayyib, Grand Imam of Cairo's Al-Azhar Mosque, during a private audience at the Vatican on May 23, 2016. Pope Francis embraced the grand imam of Al-Azhar, the prestigious Sunni Muslim center of learning, in a sign that a five-year suspension of important Catholic-Muslim ties was over. The meeting comes five years after the Cairo-based Al-Azhar froze talks with the Vatican to protest comments by then-Pope Benedict XVI. -- Pope Francis died on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at the age of 88 at his residence in the Vatican's Casa Santa Marta.

Pope Francis (1936-2025) wrote in his testament that he wanted to be buried in the left nave of the basilica Santa Maria Maggiore (St Mary Major). ‘I ask that my tomb be prepared in the burial niche in the side aisle between the Pauline Chapel and the Sforza Chapel of the Basilica. The tomb should be in the ground; simple, without particular ornamentation, bearing only the inscription: Franciscus’. Unlike the majority of popes who have been interred beneath St Peter's Basilica, Pope Francis has reportedly made arrangements to be buried at Santa Maria Maggiore in Rome's Esquilino district.
