Where do you even begin when you have to pay tribute to our dear Prophet. President Hinckley was one of a kind. He had such a fun whit about him. He is the only prophet that I have actually had the opportunity to meet and it was an experience of a lifetime to be in the presence of a servant of our Savior. I was giving a fireside after I returned home from my adventure in Ghana and he happened to stop by where I was giving it. I will never forget the feeling, the spirit, or the emotion that I felt that night. He has been such a wonderful leader of our church and I pray that we can all remember him and stand a little taller! I am so grateful for all the work that he did while he was the prophet. He built so many beautiful temples and began the perpetual education fund- there are just so many wonderful things that you can say about this sweet little man. Although I was full of emotion when I heard the news, Luke reminded me about the special reunion that was taking place with him and Marjorie. What a neat day this was for them. I am grateful that I am able to say that Gordon B. Hinckley was my prophet growing up!

I have not seen that picture of him. I love it. It has the picture of Brigham in the back that he always talked about. Thanks for your thoughts.
Al-
I love that picture of him! We will miss him like crazy and his sweet smile, but he has such an amazing reunion in Heaven right now, that it makes it easier to take. Hope you can come see us sometime, and I'll let you know when I come in April. Take care!:)
Love ya much
