To our dear Catholic colleagues at the Bar, I share in your grief at the passing of His Holiness, Pope Francis—a humble servant whose voice echoed the heartbeat of compassion, truth, and justice.
He was more than a Pontiff; he was a moral compass in turbulent times, reminding us that the law, like faith, must ultimately serve humanity.
In his simplicity, he bore great wisdom. In his humility, he revealed true strength.
May his soul find eternal peace in the bosom of the Just Judge. We mourn with you and remember him with deep respect and affection.
