Now to the latest on the death of Pope Francis. The pontiff is lying in state in St. Peter's
Basilica for three days for mourners to pay their respects ahead of his funeral
And Fox News, Sharon Crowley, is here with more on all of this. Sharon? Yes, so many people going there to the Vatican to pay their respects. In fact
mourners from all over the world coming to say goodbye to Pope Francis. His body moved today in a moving ceremony to St. Peter's Basilica ahead of his funeral on
Saturday. Now, the 88-year-old leader of the Roman Catholic Church died Monday of a stroke
and heart failure. A steady procession, as we've been saying, of mourners winding through the holy
door and down the central aisle of the basilica. Pope Francis was laid out with red robes
clasping a rosary, and the traditional pointed headdress. The faithful waiting hours, some as
many as five hours, just to reach the casket. In fact, crowds are so large, the Vatican may allow
the viewing to continue after midnight. It will go on for three days until the funeral Saturday
as we said, and cardinals from around the globe also making their way to the Vatican, as you can
see there. The conclave, when the cardinals select a new pope in secret, begins in a few weeks. Today
visitors traveling for miles to say goodbye to their beloved Holy Father. Very, very moving
experience to see him so vulnerable after so long, being so unwell. The queuing was difficult, but
kind of worth it in the end. I think he was a great pope, so I really hope that they'll
vote someone else equally as compassionate back into the role. Well, four Swiss guards stand duty by the casket as the tens of thousands of people
that are expected to pass through the Basilica view Pope Francis. Now, the Pope died as he led the Catholic Church for 12 years
and he was best known for his concern for the poor and prioritizing a message of inclusion
something we've been talking about all week, ladies. Absolutely. That seems to be revered by some money
