President Gordon B. Hinckley

I just love this man! He will be missed by millions around the world. I was just telling my girlfriend today how amazed I am with his ability to relate to people of all ages, genders, races, and religions. I was listening to NPR radio the day after his death and they were interviewing priests and bishops of other faiths in the SL valley. It was humbling to listen to them praise what a great man he was. The reoccuring theme I heard from these interviewees on the radio was that he had a special way about making others feel special and that you mattered to him. President Hinckley had a great vision and accomplished so much in his life, but I'm happy that he is now with his Heavenly Father, our Savior and his dear wife.

Amen. I love this tribute to our dear prophet. I will miss him too. I can't believe that he will no longer be with us on this earth...I last saw him in December and thought it would be so sad when he finally passes on. We all grew up with him at the helm...

Kirsten! Yay, I was thinking about you a few weeks ago, wondering what you were up to. You look really good, and sound really happy too. That's awesome!

Hey Kirsten,

Found you on class of 99. Looks like you are doing great with your cute little family. It's fun to see all the blogs and see people still so strong in the gospel. hope all is going well,
