What a sad, sad day! My mother-in-law called us last night to tell us the grieving news. Our beloved prophet, Gordon B. Hinckley passed away of natural causes last night. It doesn't seem real. This great man has played a major role in my life, and has been the prophet I have grown the closest to. He became the prophet 2 years before I embarked on the biggest life changing event of my life (my mission). I have feasted upon his words through General Conference, and his Ensign messages. He was such a rock and foundation for me, and I truly loved that man. He has taken The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints into a whole new realm.
We will miss you President Hinckley, but are excited for you to be reunited with the love of your life and other family members. How excited I will be to meet you one day in the afterlife, and express to you my gratitude for all that you did for me. Thank you for being such a strength in my life and my testimony. You have glorified our Heavenly Father in your actions, and a great example of sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ. You taught us to love our neighbor regardless of their religion, and to embrace them. You helped us grow closer to our Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ through temple work, and made it possible for those who couldn't to attend.
Thank you!
