- Pope's funeral set for Friday; 2 million expected to pay respects

VATICAN CITY - (KRT) - The Vatican announced that the funeral would be held at 10 a.m. local time Friday and that John Paul II would be buried in St. Peter's crypt, alongside many past popes. The announcement ended speculation that he may have requested to be buried in Poland.
Rome was bracing for an influx of up to 2 million pilgrims who are expected to converge on the Vatican to pay their respects. The funeral will be held outside, on the steps of the church, to allow as many people as possible to attend.
