President Hinckley died yesterday of old age in his home in Salt Lake. I have never seen news travel so quickly. My dad was at a Priesthood meeting in California and texted the news to me. I called my mom and she called her mom who confirmed it. During this time we checked the web to find it already all over the place. He was truly one of the most important figures in our church and world history and I am sad, but excited for him that he gets to be with his wife again and return to our Heavenly Father after a job very well done.

my friends have a picture of him wearing some old-fashioned hat and a trenchcoat. it's really charming.
isn't it cool how much we all love him?
My first thoughts were the same, how happy he must be to be with his sweetheart again. It is hard to feel sad when I think about how lonely he was without her and how sweet their reunion must be.
I thought the same thing. I actually thought about our grandpa and how much he wants to see grandma again.
