Card. Razafindratandra, RIP

Armand Gaétan Cardinal Razafindratandra, Archbishop Emeritus of Antananarivo, Madagascar, has died at 84.

For some years I did the Christmas cards for my old boss H.E. Card. Mayer, now the oldest living cardinal.  Every Cardinal in the College got a card. 

I remember carefully typing out this name and practicing the pronunciation, together with his see.

    R.I.P.

    His passing leaves 70 non-electors in the College, 41 of whom were already such at the last conclave. Cdl. Razafindratandra was an elector, not reaching his 80th birthday until August of that year.
