Italian Cardinal Agostino Cacciavillan, a former papal nuncio to India who delicately handled the rivalry between the three rites in the country, died on March 5 at the age of 95. The long-time Vatican diplomat was also a nuncio to the United States and headed the Vatican investment office.
He served in Washington as nuncio to the United States and Vatican re-presentative to the Organization of American States from 1990 to 1998.
