President Gordon B. Hinckley
Quinn was home teaching, with Ame, last night and I was just hanging out with my boys. The TV was on (as background noise) and all of a sudden breaking news came. The second they said his name I KNEW what they were going to say, but I was still soo suprised! I guess he has been a fighter, with his health and age, for soo many years that I just never expected him to EVER actually pass on. ALthough, I shed some tears and have had a VERY heavy heart, I KNOW he is soo happy to be reunited with his wife. I am so glad he had family by his side as he passed away and that he had time to say his good bye's there AND not be alone.

Hinckley has impacted MY life in so many ways and I have NOW taken the time to realize just how much he HAS influenced me. What an AMAZING MAN he is and what tremendous things he has done on the earth, in his time here. I appreciated all the news channels here, cutting into all the unimportant shows, to pay tribute to this Beloved Man.
THIS prophet will be one remembered forever... for his life, his service,
his love and all that he has done for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and The World!

How shocked I was when you called last night. I too have had such a sad but grateful heart. As we read and reflect on all that he TRULY has done for us and all mankind, my love for this great prophet is overflowing. How blessed we are to have been taught and served by Pres. Hinckley
Well said
this is such a sad, but good opportunity to reflect on the life of such an amazing man. we are so lucky that we got to have him here with us for as long as we did. now it's time for him to rest and enjoy the company of his sweet wife.
