WASHINGTON, D.C. – On the eve of Pope John Paul’s II funeral, Representative Xavier Becerra (CA-31) issued the following statement:
“As people of humanity, we mourn the pontiff’s passing. As people of faith, we celebrate John Paul’s extraordinary life. The Pope’s words, actions and deeds not only left an indelible mark on the people who lived through his papacy, but indeed, they left a mark on all of history. His life was truly one for the ages and he will be sorely missed. May eternal light shine upon him, and may he rest in peace.”
