Crowds are gathering to mourn following the death of the Pope.
The head of the Catholic Church died overnight at the age of 88, following a stroke, coma, and subsequent heart failure following a battle with double pneumonia.
Nine days of mourning is now underway before his funeral and his burial at Saint Mary Major.
Newstalk ZB's Catherine Field is in Paris – one of many parts of the Catholic world now mourning the Pope's loss.
She told Mike Hosking while Francis divided opinion in Europe, everyone agrees he was a man of humility and compassion.
