The Vatican released the first photo and video of Pope Francis in repose, dressed in red liturgical vestments. Dr. Andrea Arcangeli confirmed that he died at 88 from a cerebral stroke. Pope Francis requested a modest burial at the Papal Basilica of St Mary Major, departing from the tradition of entombing popes at St Peter’s Basilica.
