When I heard that President Hinckley had passed away, I felt happy for him and I felt very calm. You could just tell he was ready to see his wife and his maker. Since then I don't feel like I've taken the time to really remember him and what he's done for us.
I ran across this article, (on someone else's blog) and I wanted to share it as well. It really put in perspective the man he was and how he truly has changed the world. He is a man who is respected by many who are not of his faith. President Hinckley was definitly a prophet for our time. He is an amazing example to anyone. I feel so close to him and I have never met him. I remember when I was deciding whether to be baptized or not I saw President Hinckley speak and I just felt like he was an honest man, and that he wouldn't lead me astray. I love him and am grateful for what he has given me.
Here is the website. There are some really awesome comments from people you may of never thought knew him as well as they did.
