Commtech Sio Bibble 1,838 Posted March 31 He doesn't look that bad, especially in comparison to his predecessors before they died, but the amount of times he's been in and out of hospital in this past year or so, mostly for lung related issues, makes me think that their might be something seriously wrong. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There will not be a double vigil but only one and no public ceremony of closure of the coffin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
