Minnesotans paid their respects for Pope Francis, who died Monday the age of 88. Many expressed their admiration for the pope, who they see as humble, compassionate and an excellent listener.

"He was always focused on including everyone, and reminded us all that we are all brothers and sister in the body of Christ,” said Kim Blackford.

Dolan gave a heartfelt tribute to Pope Francis following the reading of the Gospel at Easter Monday's morning Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Manhattan, referencing the Easter story of when women discovered the empty tomb of Jesus.
