Original Toronto Star caption: Personal touch, Taking an unscheduled walk after lighting the eternal flame in Toronto's Peace Garden, Pope John Paul II, with Mayor Art Eggleton at his side, reaches out to the people on the edge of the crowd in Nathan Phillips Square yesterday, many of whom had waited more than six hours to see him. He's very gentle. He had such soft hands, one woman said. The ceremony itself took only minutes, and scores converged on the memorial garden.
