ALBAWABA - JD Vance, Vice President of the United States, has been trending on social media along with Pope Francis after people said he was the last one to see the religious leader.
Donald Trump's Vice President paid a visit to the Vatican over the weekend and met with the pope hours before he passed away.
The Vatican announced that Pope Francis died on Easter Monday, April 21, aged 88, inside his residence in the Vatican's Casa Santa Marta due to a stroke.
Cardinal Kevin Farrell announced the sad news on Telegram: "This morning at 7:35 am (0535 GMT) the Bishop of Rome, Francis, returned to the home of the Father. His entire life was dedicated to the service of the Lord and of his Church."
He added: "He taught us to live the values of the Gospel with faithfulness, courage, and universal love, especially for the poorest and most marginalized. With immense gratitude for his example as a true disciple of the Lord Jesus, we commend the soul of Pope Francis to the infinite, merciful love of God, One and Tribune."
