Our church leader and prophet, Gordon B. Hinckley passed away at his home about 7 o'clock last night with his family at his side. President Hinckley was 97 years old. He was the 15th president of the church. I just wanted to say a few words about this man. He was truly an amazing person. We will miss him very much for he was loved by all people who knew him. He had such a great sense of humor and I loved listening to his talks. He had such an inspired way to speak to people and convey messages of his heart. I know that he must be a happy man right now because he is home with his Heavenly Father, Savior, Jesus Christ and wife Marjorie. He loved the gospel with all of this heart and he was truly a servant of the Lord. I am so thankful for him and the life and example that he gave us all. We have been blessed to be alive during his leadership and to be able to witness a man of God. We love you and miss you!! Thanks for all of your service and love...

Thank you for you words about our beloved prophet. I have been so emotional since I heard the news last night of his passing. After speaking to mom this morning, She stated her one thing she will remember most is his words of, "It is okay to be Happy.". And then your words of how happy he must be to be with his wife Marjorie. Yes I will miss him for I loved this man and the constant guidance he gave us. Thank you for your thoughts. It has helped with the pain a little.

By the way, HOLY COW you've been busy girl! You came out of nowhere... went from blogging obscurity to Blogger SuperStar. Slow down a little so us wannabes can keep up.
Well said on President Hinckley. He will be greatly missed.
