The news of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI’s death on the last day of 2022 was filled with joy and sadness. The faithful shepherd had finally entered into the presence of his beloved Jesus while, at the same time, leaving a void in the hearts of the faithful and those who respected him as an accomplished intellectual and world leader. Benedict XVI reigned as the 265th pope from 2005-2013.
