From the ramparts of the 600-year old Wawel Cathedral in
Krakow, Poland, Karol Cardinal Wojtyla greets crowds in this
July 9, 1967 file photo, after he recently returned from Rome
when he was elevated to cardinal by Pope Paul VI. Pope John
Paul II, the Polish pontiff who led the Roman Catholic Church
for more than a quarter century and became history's
most-traveled pope, died Saturday night, April 2, 2005, in his
Vatican apartment. He was 84. (AP Photo/File)
