By Elise Ann Allen, Catholic Herald - During his funeral Mass, Pope Francis was remembered for his extraordinary legacy of service to those on life’s margins and praised for his constant emphasis on God’s mercy and the importance of fraternity in a divided world... “It’s important to note that Pope Francis always placed the Gospel of mercy at the centre, repeatedly emphasising that God never tires of forgiving us,” said Italian Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, dean of the College of Cardinals, in his homily.
