So we just heard the news of the passing of President Hinckley and really don't know what to think yet. We are glad to hear that it was just due to old age, 97, and that he was there with family members in his home. That is always comforting.
I joined the church in 1997 and he has been the only prophet that I have known. Dan grew up with President Kimbell and then President Hinckley. President Hinckley has done so much for the growth of the church and for public relations regarding the church. To look at the growth of the church and the number of temples that have been built during his presidency is amazing; and then there are the numerous other programs that he put into effect during his time as prophet. He has made such a big impact on so many peoples lives and will be missed dearly.

I am so sad as well. He is really the only prophet I feel like I have ever known as well.
Congrats to Dan on Scouts! What a perfect calling for him. He will be so good.
