| Description: | The ordeal of Pope John XXIII is ended, the Pontiff is dead. His lingering illness brought thousands to pray outside his window. Day and night they filled St. Peter's Square and their prayers were echoed around the world. This was a Pope who had won the respect and homage of all. A humanitarian and Man of God who spent a long and fruitful life on behalf of his fellow man. The heart is stilled but the fruit of that great mind will influence man into the dim reaches of infinity. Vatican, Rome, Italy Thousands gather outside his apartment window to pray.
