People continue to line up in Rome to say farewell to Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI. Over 65,000 mourners paid their respects Monday and about 70,000 more Tuesday. That's far more than many officials expected as the public pays tribute to the former pope who spent his final years away from the public following his resignation.
