Timothy M. Dolan, archbishop of New York, U.S.A., for the death of
Cardinal Edward M. Egan, archbishop emeritus of the same diocese. He
recalls with gratitude “his years of episcopal ministry among
Christ's flock in Bridgeport and New York, his distinguished service
to the Apostolic See, and his expert contribution to the revision of
the Church's law in the years following the Vatican Council II”,
and, commending the late Cardinal's soul to God, imparts his
apostolic blessing to all those participating in his funeral, held in
