The Passing of a Prophet

I remember when President Kimball passed away. I was very young. He was the first prophet I had known. I revered and loved him and was moved by his death.

It will be the same way for my children with the passing of President Hinckley. He is the only prophet they have known. I am happy that he was the first prophet they knew. He set the bar high for those to follow.

As for me, I am at peace. He lived a full life and lead the church faithfully. The church will go on because it is God’s church and not President Hinckley’s. He will be missed. But, like Hannah said, he’s with his beloved wife now.
