The funeral procession of toddler Alfie Evans passes near Everton’s stadium in Liverpool, England, May 14. The 23-month-old boy, who suffered a severe degenerative neurological condition, died April 28, some 10 days after his father, Tom Evans, had asked Pope Francis to help get him to Rome for treatment.
