President Gordon B. Hinckely, the prophet of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, died tonight. He was 97 and had served as president of the church of 12 years. What an amazing life of service this man lived. He was deeply loved by the members of the church. I felt shock and sadness upon news of his passing, even though I know he's gone on to a better place. He will be missed among the Saints.
One of the things I loved about Gordon B. Hinckey was his sense of humor. He was very witty and loved to make people smile. Another thing I loved about him was how he traveled around the world to meet Latter-day Saints in distant countries to bring hope and support to the church throughout the world. He left a wonderful legacy and will be missed deeply by those who knew him.
