Palermo FC, with President Dario Mirri and the entire City Football Group family, expresses its deepest condolences on the passing away of Pope Francis.
The memory of his visit in the city on 15th September 2018 will remain indelible in the memory of all the people of Palermo. After celebrating Mass at the Foro Italico on the 25th anniversary of the death of Blessed Pino Puglisi, the Pope had lunch alongside Fratel Biagio Conte and the Archbishop of Palermo, Monsignor Corrado Lorefice, together with guests from the Mission of Hope and Charity. Before leaving the city, the Pope also paid tribute to the victims of the Capaci tragedy, pausing in silent prayer at the foot of the memorial stele.
