OUR BELOVED PROPHET...


We have had to say farewell to our beloved prophet, President Gordon B. Hinckley. His death has saddened our family, yet my nephew Jacob spoke it best when he said, "It left a tear that brought a smile." We will all miss him dearly and are grateful for his many years of faithful service. Upon hearing of his death, my other children all said, "Wow, Noah gets to meet the prophet!" In FHE last night we talked about the things the we would remember most about President Hinckley...we were pleased to hear the things the kids said. His presence here will surely be missed but we will go on and do as he did...stand for truth and right. Every time I go to the Raleigh Temple I will think of him and be grateful for his great revelation of bringing the temples to the people. He has touched us all in so many ways. In his words...we must move forward with faith!

Oh Jean, you said it so well! Sarah Beth prays every night that "President Monson can be as good as President Hinckley" and I am sure he appreciates her prayers! We will miss him.
