In 1963, as a young priest, Cardinal Simoni was arrested, tortured, and sentenced to death by the Communist authorities for offering Mass for the soul of John F. Kennedy.
His sentence was later converted to life imprisonment of hard labor. Communist authorities offered to free him if he renounced his faith. He didn’t and after 28 years of penal labour, he was eventually freed.
Pope Francis heard his testimony during his trip to Albania in September 2014, visibly moved to tears by the words of this priest, whom he always called a “living martyr”. In 2016, Pope Francis named him a Cardinal, thanking him for this testimony "that does good for the Church." He chose the motto: “My Immaculate Heart will Triumph.” – at Ibadan, Nigeria
