Pope sends condolences on the death of Brazilian Cardinal Scheid Pope Francis sends a telegramme of condolence on the death of Cardinal Eusebio Oscar Scheid, Archbishop emeritus of the Metropolitan See of San Sebastian, of Rio de Janerio, Brazil. By Vatican News staff writer In a telegramme to the current Archbishop of Rio de Janeiro, Cardinal Orani João Tempesta, O. Cist., Pope Francis says he received with deep regret the news of Cardinal Scheid’s death. He also offers “prayerful solidarity” to all the faithful who found him to be “a zealous pastor.” The Pope writes that the late Cardinal’s Episcopal motto is “God is Good,” which he says, “Reminds us of God’s goodness to His Church.” He adds, “This remembrance is truly consoling when we remember beloved Eusebio’s gift that served the people of God so diligently, having been the first Bishop of São José dos Campos.”
