President Hinckley
So, we just got a call from my sister at BYU Hawaii saying that President Hinckley, the leader of our church, had just passed away. He was 97 years old and we found an article on the church website saying that he died at 7pm tonight in his downtown Salt Lake City apartment of old age with his family members with him. It was kind of shocking to hear that he died -- he has been the prophet for most of our lives that we remember and it just seems like he has been around so long that he should just keep on being around forever. We will miss him. I bet his reunion with his wife was a wonderful time for them. And now President Monson will be the new leader of the church -- I have always especially enjoyed listening to his talks.
